| 3GSM World Congress, Cannes, France- Feb.
23, 2004 - BEA Systems (Nasdaq: BEAS), Documentum, a division
of EMC (NYSE: EMC), and MobileAware today announced an integrated
product set for mobile content delivery which can enable consumers
to use their mobile phones to order and purchase online content and
downloadable multimedia. In addition, the content delivery suite is
designed to manage the acquisition of internal and third party content
and the provisioning of that content to different customer market
segments.
"The integrated product set can enable mobile operators to deploy
a highly personalized system for marketing content to consumers,"
said Brian Kinane, chief technology officer, MobileAware. "This
type of system can help operators achieve much greater sophistication
in terms of segmentation of content and customers."
The key advantage of the suite is that it is designed to incorporate
the strengths of proven enterprise software to deliver a scalable,
fully integrated out-of-the-box solution. The integrated products
are a combination of MobileAware’s Mobile Interaction Server
Version 3.2, BEA WebLogic Platform™ 8.1 and the Documentum 5
Enterprise Content Management platform, all running on Intel-based
servers. The combined product set can enable mobile operators, content
aggregators and system integrators to rapidly deploy the product set
and customize the functionality to meet their requirements.
"Documentum is delighted to work with MobileAware and BEA in
providing the next generation of dynamic, multi-channel, content delivery
solutions," said Matt Shanahan, vice president, Global Industries
Group of Documentum. "We believe Documentum Version 5 can provide
the essential tools to manage the entire content lifecycle, from content
provider to consumer."
Key benefits of the mobile content delivery include:
Attracting new subscribers through enhanced content discovery.
Maximizing subscriber revenue through provision of high-value targeted
content.
Optimizing customer experience through multi-device color portal.
Proactively assuring quality of content services.
Reducing customer management costs through mobile self-care.
"Mobile content delivery is a great example of how the WebLogic
Service Delivery framework and partner program can be applied to reduce
the capital, time to market, and operational costs of operator service
platforms," said Rick Jackson, senior vice president, product
marketing, BEA Systems.
BEA WebLogic JRockit™, the first Java Virtual Machine (JVM)
optimized for the Intel® Itanium® 2 processor and the Intel®
Xeon™ processor family, supports the content delivery suite
with reliability, scalability and very attractive price and performance.
At 3GSM, Sony Music will provide a range of mobile-optimized multimedia
content as part of the demonstration of the content delivery suite.
