Sinossi

This is the first book to explain the SyncML spec and reference implementations in-depth. The authors explain how to integrate SyncML into mobile devices as well as how to set up a synchronization server which runs SyncML. An entire chapter is devoted to SyncML security. The major coverage is on the categories of SyncML, applications with a heavy emphasis on how to integrate mobile devices more tightly into corporate environments. SyncML was developed by the SyncML Consortium. Founding members include: IBM, Palm, Symbian, Nokia, Motorola, Ericsson and Lotus. It is supported by more than 650 key mobile and wireless leaders worldwide. Doug Heintzman, chairman of the SyncML Initiative says it best, "According to recent research from Cahners In-Stat, enterprise adoption of wireless data will grow exponentially over the next five years, with business users of wireless data skyrocketing to 39 million in 2006, from 6.6 million last year. We feel strongly that SyncML will be a key driver of that growth."

Introducing SyncML: the new XML-based standard for universal synchronization.

Effective, standards-based data synchronization will make possible a new generation of breakthrough mobile services. Now, there's an XML-based standard that enables synchronization across virtually any device, platform, application, or service: SyncML. In this book, four leaders of the SyncML community offer an insider's guide to SyncML from both a technical and business standpoint. You'll discover why SyncML offers advantages available through no other technology; how SyncML overcomes the traditional obstacles to universal synchronization, and how SyncML can be integrated into end-to-end solutions that deliver a first-class "out of the box" experience.

  • SyncML solutions for personal information management, enterprise data management, and mobile services
  • SyncML clients, servers, synchronization/representation protocols, DTDs, transport bindings, and more
  • Synchronization for one-to-one, many-to-one, many-to-many, and hybrid topologies
  • Security and authentication in SyncML applications and services
  • Using SyncML to provision and manage mobile devices
  • The SyncML API, Reference Implementation, and SyncML Conformance and Interoperability Process

SyncML is designed for every business and technology professional concerned with mobile applications and synchronization. Decision-makers will learn how SyncML will drive new business models and the delivery of entirely new products and services. Software architects and project managers will discover how SyncML components can be integrated into complete solutions; and developers will learn how to maximize the performance, reliability, and scalability of those solutions.
