Thereby ensuring seamless end-to-end connectivity between Xtenna™ RFID and existing deployments of BizTalk RFID middleware and databases/applications, through a single value-enhancing solution. |

Performing the function of connecting Xtenna™ hardware devices to Microsoft BizTalk RFID, is Essen RFID's BizTalk RFID - PROVIDER. Acting as a device driver that manages and integrates Xtenna™ with enterprise applications through BizTalk RFID, the Provider simplifies the integration process and ensures that there is no device control dependency on the application layer.
This also enables developers to create and build a Custom Event Handler and bind it with other BizTalk processes.
Essen RFID’s end-to-end integration is accomplished through Connectors that communicate between BizTalk RFID and the application layer consisting of databases as well as ERP applications such as SAP v4.7/v6.0.
Essen DB CONNECTOR exports data to various legacy databases such as Oracle (9i, 10g, 11g), IBM DB2, MS SQL Server v. 2000/2005/2008/Express, as well as open source databases such as MySQL 5.0.
Essen SAP CONNECTOR exports data in PML format to SAP’s Auto ID Infrastructure.
This allows databases and applications to process data easily without having to allocate resources for functions such as data fetching and Xtenna™ device control. |
