Benefits of a common synchronization

 

to deploy and support their customers in a

protocol

 

cost-effective manner. To support the

range of data types and devices in use

 

today, service providers must install and

 

Today’s user of mobile devices probably

 

 

 

configure multiple server infrastructures,

 

uses a different synchronization product

 

 

 

maintain and support that infrastructure,

 

with every device. Each technology can

 

 

 

and maintain compatibility and perfor-

 

synchronize only a few applications, or is

 

 

 

mance. The alternative now available, to

 

limited to a particular type of network con-

nection. This arrangement is expensive to

 

 

 

involves the risk of a tight coupling to a
