Hosted ASP applications

Using XDOBS hosted solutions you can begin using the advanced functionality right away.   All you need to do is sign up and buy your phones.   There is no need to buy servers or software.   XDOBS does all the hard work while you get all the benefits right away.




Security & Data protection
 Advanced technology is used to protect the confidentiality of your data and ensure that only the appropriate people in your organization can see appropriate sections of your data.

The architects of the XDOBS solution are the same architects who built XML infrastructure that was sold to Hewlett Packard to extend their security infrastructure to provide fine grained access to secure customer documents.  This same knowledge and experience has been applied to protect your data when it is saved on XDOBS servers.

















Location Based Services (LBS)


XDOBS uses GPS as the technology enabler for Location Based Services (LBS) that exploit knowledge about where an information device is located.    The user of a GPS enabled wireless-connected mobile Internet device can feed real time location data back to the XDOBS servers which can apply advanced logistics planning algorithms determine if this person has time to stop and service an extra customer site which is close to their current location.    

If the user has the time the system can automatically notify the user of the extra service location.


Voice ML & Computer Generated voice.


The current generation of phones do not allow J2ME to directly ring or talk to the user.   They also do not allow J2ME client applications to talk to the server when the user is in a voice call.    

The XDOBS servers work around these limitations by using voice ML a XML technology that allows our servers to generate voice.     Using Voice ML our servers can directly call the end users mobile phone and give the person the information via voice over phones hands free option.    

The intelligent client software will have already downloaded a map and turn by turn directions to the new appointment location.

In the future GPS phones will allow the J2ME application to send location data back to the server while in the middle of a call and they may even enable computer generated voice right on the phone.   Once this happens the server will be able to give turn by turn instructions via speaker phone.



Custom Solution Development
Mobile Enterprise Software

In the process of building our mobile ASP solutions XDOBS has developed a significant base of mobile application,  mobile integration and GPS expertise.   We have also honed our skills as experts in XML Infrastructure and Web Services.

Our solution development has yielded an extensive library of high quaility re-usable software components.   These components can be made available to accelerate your project.   For larger projects we often make these libraries available free of charge.  These components can save  millions of dollars for larger projects will definitly provide time to deployment advantages.

XDODBS generally provides total project consulting to companies with Mobile Computing budgets between 30K and 200K.      We can provide integration consulting for companies with smaller project budgets.

Solution Integration Consulting

XDOBS provides consulting services necessary to integrate it solutions with existing customer systems and processes.    

These services include world class training and support.

Integration

XDOBS is designed to be able to operate as a stand alone application.   This makes it easy for you get up and running fast and to realize the benefits of the solution quickly.

In some instances you may have existing applications which contain part of the data which XDOBS applications need to operate correctly.  

When existing data is needed it is necessary to integrate these applications so they can interact with XDOBS to share the appropriate data.

XDOBS can provide this service or you can use your own.

Integration API
XDOBS provides advanced XML based .NET compatible API which are designed to make integration as painless and inexpensive as necessary.     

 In some instances it is necessary to write a small amount of code that teaches your applications how to talk to the XDOBS .NET API.     XDOBS engineers can do this work or if you prefer you can use a local programmer that you already have a relationship with.



Contract CTO

Joe Ellsworth is available for limited engagements to provide CTO and lead architect services.    Joe's experience while at Coherity and HP can be invaluable when building a new high technology product.   Joe's experience can save months of development time and help your reach market with a more robust and reliable product.
