SAMSys Joins Oracle(R) PartnerNetwork To Simplify RFID Reader Sourcing for Oracle Partners and Customers
  	    TORONTO, April 25 /CNW/ - SAMSys Technologies Inc. (SMY: TSX), an international provider of Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) hardware solutions announced today that it has joined the Oracle PartnerNetwork to make SAMSys RFID readers readily available to the system integrators, value-added resellers and enterprises that are utilizing Oracle's Application Server 10g Sensor Edge Server in radio frequency identification (RFID) implementations. SAMSys readers can be easily integrated into Oracle E-Business Suite Warehouse Management software and other Oracle offerings as part of a complete solution designed to meet RFID compliance initiatives and/or improve business processes. 	    SAMSys' participation in the 14,000-member Oracle PartnerNetwork will make it easier for solution providers and end users to locate reader hardware for use in their RFID projects. It will also increase SAMSys' business opportunities by exposing Oracle's vast partner and customer base to the advantages of SAMSys readers, including a patented open architecture that supports multiple RFID protocols and frequencies. This architecture gives enterprises a choice of RFID tags as well as the ability to migrate to new tag technology at any time without being forced to change their reader hardware. 	    SAMSys readers complement Oracle's Sensor-Based Services, which utilize Oracle Database 10g, Oracle Application Server 10g, Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g and Oracle E-Business Suite to help turn the data collected by RFID tags and other sensors into real information and intelligence that can be used to optimize business processes and gain competitive advantage. 	    "Oracle has been aggressive in developing Sensor Edge solutions to support the rapidly growing RFID movement, and our acceptance into the Oracle PartnerNetwork will extend that effort by pointing solution providers and end users to a trusted source for RFID readers," said Cliff Horwitz, chairman, CEO and president of SAMSys Technologies Inc. "At the same time, the network will function as a referral service that will broaden our reach in the marketplace with virtually no resource commitment." 	    SAMSys joins an ecosystem of partners that Oracle is building to deliver end-to-end solutions for RFID and other sensor-based services. Leading partners include systems integrators such as Cap Gemini, Deloitte Consulting and Tata Consultancy; device manufacturers such as Intermec, Printronix, Symbol-Matrics, Zebra, Tyco and Alien; hardware vendors such as HP, Dell and Intel; network vendors such as Cisco Systems and Verisign; and ISVs such as Environmax, Savi and RF Code. 	    SAMSys has also been selected as one of two third-party RFID vendors to participate in Oracle Partner Network Days in Europe. This ongoing event - designed to aid current and potential Oracle partners in marketing, selling, implementing or developing Oracle-based solutions - is further raising SAMSys' profile within Oracle's partner community. 	    Oracle PartnerNetwork members can locate SAMSys by searching the network's online solutions catalog, by direct referrals from Oracle sales representatives, or through Oracle marketing efforts.
