SCO Releases SCO Mobile Server SDK

(Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
At the SCO Tec Forum, The SCO Group, a provider of UNIX software
technology and mobile services, announced that its new software
developer toolkit for the SCO Mobile Server Platform is now available.

Built to support the SCO Mobile Server, the company said that
developers can use the new toolkit to develop custom web and mobile
digital services, one of the fastest growing technology markets. The
toolkit is available for download from SCO's website.

The SCO Mobile SDK allows developers to enable an existing application
for web and mobile services or develop an entirely new application. The
company said that one of the first successful applications built upon
the platform is the Shout Postcard mobile application, a free
application that allows users to combine photos, audio, and text into
multimedia postcards or web albums. FCMobilelife, developed by The SCO
Group and distributed exclusively by FranklinCovey Products, a company
providing effectiveness and productivity tools, is an excellent example
of the depth of a web and mobility solution built upon the SCO Mobile
Server Platform and now has thousands of users. HipCheck, an enterprise
level web and mobile application, and also developed on the SCO Mobile
Platform lets users securely monitor their Windows, Solaris , SCO UNIX,
servers, and other UNIX variants servers from a Windows Mobile,
Blackberry, Treo or other popular smartphones and take correct
corrective action as required.

The SCO Mobile Server provides a complete hosting environment for
applications built with this SDK. The company said the SCO Mobile


Server can be deployed by an enterprise for hosting a custom
application, or by a reseller for supporting many enterprises on the
same server. SCO can also provide hosting services for SCO Mobile
applications.

"This is a significant and positive step forward for SCO's mobile
initiatives and is a platform for cloud computing leading the way to
Web 3.0," said Jeff Hunsaker, President and Chief Operating Officer,
SCO Operations. "SCO has worked diligently to bring this SDK to market
to provide developers with a powerful, new application development
tool" said Hunsaker. "Built upon the reliability of the UNIX platform,
developers can quickly build web and mobile solutions for a wide
variety of popular smartphones."
