All rights reserved. IBM and wireless solutions provider Research In Motion (RIM) have agreed to undertake initiatives designed to drive growth in the mobile industry by providing customers with the benefits of tighter integration between IBM Lotus Domino and the Blackberry Enterprise Solution. Initial areas of focus include helping mobile workers by extending Lotus Domino applications through web services directly to Blackberry. As part of market awareness initiatives, RIM will offer a Blackberry Enterprise Server promotion to Lotus Domino or IBM Lotus Sametime customers. The integration of web services support in Lotus Domino 7 with Blackberry development tools enables customers to access, view and manipulate data remotely from their Blackberry devices. IBM and RIM are exploring opportunities for customers to extend these web services directly to Blackberry, redefining the boundaries of their Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) to include mobile access. |
