Sun Microsystems has tapped Synchronica plc to provide synchronization and device-management software.
Sun will license components of Synchronica’s mobile gateway for wireless synchronization of contacts, calendars, tasks and other enterprise-related data for its Java System Communications Suite and Java System Application Platform Suite. Synchronica, a U.K.-based developer, said the agreement marks the largest customer win in its history.
Synchronica provides data synchronization and firmware update over-the-air technology based on open industry standards.
“Open industry standards are the only way to provide secure synchronization capabilities to the widest range of smartphones and feature phones on the market today,” said Synchronica CEO Carsten Brinkschulte. “Synchronica has long been committed to supporting industry standards such as SyncML, and today’s agreement with Sun validates that open industry standards are the way of the future for technology innovation.”
