mPortal adds support for BREW to its Mobile Solutions
Vienna, VA - mPortal Inc., a leading end-to-end wireless
solutions provider for enterprises and carriers, announced
today the support of QUALCOMM’s Binary Runtime
Environment for Wireless™ (BREW™) platform
within its Enterprise Everywhere™ mobile application
platform. Enterprise Everywhere enables rapid development
and deployment of mobile/wireless data applications,
extending any back-end system to any mobile device.
BREW, a very thin applications environment
for wireless devices, is emerging as a strong device
and service delivery platform and is currently being
deployed around the globe. Several carriers are supporting
BREW in conjunction with Java™ 2 Micro Edition
(J2ME™), an already popular platform for mobile
device applications. “mPortal has been deeply
involved in the development of J2ME applications, working
with several large enterprises and carriers. Adding
BREW to our repertoire is a natural next step and enables
us to continue to provide robust solutions for our clients
and partners,” said BA Winston, Director of Software
Development for mPortal Inc.
BREW is a natural compliment to mPortal’s
Enterprise Everywhere platform. While BREW provides
a platform for mobile devices on which device applications
can be built, and allows for easy distribution of applications,
the mPortal platform provides the necessary components
to wirelessly enable existing business systems, including
the ability to integrate with the back-end system and
build the application residing on the mobile device.
