Jacada Supports WAP and Palm Wireless Devices
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 13, 2000--
Jacada(R) Wireless Enables Mobile Users to Seamlessly Access
Business Critical Applications
Jacada Ltd. (NASDAQ: JCDA) today announced Jacada(R) Wireless, a
suite of solutions enabling wireless devices to quickly and easily
integrate with existing applications. Jacada provides a complete
software infrastructure to rapidly transform business critical systems
into e-business solutions and to empower enterprise developers to
build Internet applications.
Jacada Wireless supports any Wireless Application Protocol (WAP)
enabled device such as mobile phones, as well as Personal Digital
Assistants (PDA) such as the Palm VII(TM). The newest addition to the
Jacada product family bridges the gap between a company's mobile
employees, partners and customers with its core enterprise
applications.
According to the WAP Forum, there will be more than 530 million
wireless subscribers by the year 2001. New estimates report that the
number of wireless subscribers will break the one billion mark by
2004. Jacada Wireless can quickly address the needs of these users to
access and utilize real business applications.
"Jacada is the leading provider of Java thin client solutions for
enterprise applications, and wireless devices are the next wave of
thin client computing," said Gideon Hollander, CEO, Jacada Ltd.
"Companies are starting to realize the potential of this technology,
and we are engaged in discussions with many of our industry leading
customers who have near-term strategies to leverage wireless solutions
for competitive advantage."
Using Jacada Wireless, any mainframe or AS/400 application can be
delivered to WAP-enabled or Palm devices providing mobile users
controlled access to valuable business applications and data. Jacada
Wireless allows organizations to leverage existing business logic and
data without requiring modifications to, or any special knowledge of,
existing application code or data structures. Jacada Wireless
automatically produces wireless markup language (WML) and hypertext
markup language (HTML) code that is interpreted by the wireless
device.
Jacada Wireless is based on the same robust e-business
infrastructure software that supports Jacada's current offerings
including Jacada(R) for Java, Jacada(R) for HTML and Jacada(R)
Connects. Jacada Wireless will use the same proven, highly-scalable
Jacada server in use today by major corporations such as Caterpillar,
Porsche, Enterprise Rent-a-Car and AIG.
