Cloudscape V3.6 provides AGEA developers with an easy-to-use, high-performance database engine to power the MobileSDK 2.0 mobile application development toolkit.

The addition of the Cloudscape database to the AGEA MobileSDK will provide a complete development environment for developers to build and test enterprise wireless applications on the AGEA MobileWORKS application development platform. With AGEA MobileSDK and Cloudscape, businesses can easily deploy their existing corporate applications at a minimal development cost, without rewriting them for mobile uses. Designing a mobile application from scratch is a very lengthy, expensive approach to enterprise application development. The combination of the AGEA MobileSDK and the Cloudscape database now make it possible for a business to download the AGEA mobile software toolkit, to create fully functional applications for mobile devices from their existing corporate applications.

Our relationship with AGEA signifies our collaborative and strategic approach toward addressing the special needs that enterprise developers face when managing their data, and intelligently extending their standard applications to new mobile devices, said Ian Schmidt, vice president of the Cloudscape business unit.

We were looking for a scalable, secure, and reliable database for the AGEA MobileSDK, and Cloudscape met all our needs, said Andres Carvallo, chairman and chief executive officer of AGEA. Cloudscape provides AGEA users with a robust, zero-administration Java database to develop mobile applications at reduced development and deployment costs.

Cloudscape and AGEA Working Together

The current downloadable version of the AGEA MobileSDK version 2.0 includes AGEA MobileWORKS version 2.5, the Cloudscape Developer version 3.6 database, complete documentation and a detailed tutorial that walks a developer step-by-step through the creation of an AGEA mobile application. Because Cloudscape is easily embedded, it requires no separate install or database management for remote wireless devices or wireless servers. As a component of the AGEA MobileWORKS server, the Cloudscape database provides developers with a robust, scalable Java database engine that is easily integrated with any Java standards-based application. Both Cloudscape and the AGEA MobileSDK are free for development use, which will significantly reduce development and deployment costs for mobile application developers.
