Forget downloading IM at random, plug and play for SMB
Tags :Announcement
Jabber has announced an appliance to ship
next year that is an IM ready plug and play device.
Jabber, which is working
on an XMPP-to-SIP Gateway to achieve interoperability with IBM's Lotus
IM product, said the release of an SMB instant messaging appliance will
coincide with a new version of the Jabber XCP Platform and an upgraded
Jabber Messenger desktop client.
Now what I like in the announcement
is the piece I highlighted above. Imagine a Jabber XCP device on
the network to control IM and hook to enterprise Sametime environment?
It will also support
Web Services (define) to embed presence and messaging into other applications
using SOAP-based APIs and a Presence Mirror to allow access to users' availability
information via a database connection.
Jabber said the product suite will also
include wireless instant messaging clients for RIM (BlackBerry), PocketPC,
SmartPhone, J2ME, Symbian, SMS and WAP.
