Oracle Eliminates Mobile Application Management DisconnectOracle9i Application Server Integrates Oracle9i Lite for Centralized Approach To Online and Offline Mobile Application ManagementREDWOOD SHORES, Calif., Oct. 24 / -- ( http://www.oracle.com/tellmemore/?1056345 ) Oracle Corporation (Nasdaq: ORCL - news), the world's largest enterprise software company, today announced that it is the first company to offer centralized management of both online and offline mobile applications. With the newly integrated offline mobile application management capabilities in Oracle9i Application Server, customers can now centrally manage mobile applications running in a connected mode on Oracle9i Application Server and in a disconnected mode on Oracle9i Lite -- Oracle's offline mobile application deployment solution.Because continuous online wireless data and application access is not always cost- or resource-effective, particularly in remote areas not well covered by wireless networks, offline mobile application support continues to be a growing priority for many information technology (IT) departments. Companies are looking to invest in technology that can simplify mobile application management while supporting new standards, protocols and devices as they enter the market. ``Oracle's new 100% centralized mobile deployment and management features dramatically slash the cost of deploying offline mobile applications,'' said Mark Citron, Ph.D., vice president of Information Systems of IPC - The Hospitalist Company. ``Oracle9i Lite is a cost-effective solution which allows us to support hundreds of mobile devices scattered around the country from one central location.'' Now, from a single, browser-based management console, customers can seamlessly access and manage Oracle9i Application Server wireless applications and Oracle9i Lite mobile offline applications. With this powerful combination, Oracle offers customers a competitive advantage by giving mobile employees fast and immediate access to critical business data on any device, independent of wireless network connection or coverage. ``Oracle has been helping leading companies successfully deploy and manage offline mobile applications for years,'' said Denise Lahey, senior vice president of Oracle's mobile products and services division. ``Now that Oracle has integrated the management of those applications centrally with Oracle9i Application Server, companies can for the first time seamlessly create, run and manage mobile business applications with or without a wireless connection.''
