areas like mobile services, mobile sales, time and travel approvals, workflows,
warehouse management, asset management, etc. Wipro’s solutions will be based on
Sybase® Unwired Platform (SUP), a mobile enterprise application platform that

initiatives in a coherent, streamlined and cost-effective manner. Mobile
solutions created using the Unwired Platform enable mobile workers to access
business critical data anytime, from anywhere, leading to a positive impact on
productivity and revenue.

SAP customers, applications on the go. SUP supports a wide variety of popular
mobile platforms. This enables true mobility for a large section of employees
and not just top or middle management. Through this, SAP’s customers will be
able to create an information edge by optimizing and enhancing the
infrastructure they already own, linking valuable data resources in place, and
securely delivering information anytime, anywhere.”

Commenting on the partnership, Sairaman Jagannathan, Vice President, Business
Solutions Division,Wipro said, “ Building on our SAP partnership, this
partnership with Sybase demonstrates a strong synergy between our companies as
we share a common goal of providing businesses easy access to valuable
information contained within enterprise applications. As Sybase’s
implementation partner, we will bring in tight integration with a wide range of
mobile environments to ensure secure and real-time access to information. Wipro
chose Sybase as a strategic partner based on the strength of its mobile
enterprise application platform  and rich expertise and proven leadership
in the enterprise mobility space.”

As part of this joint initiative,  Wipro will set up  a Center of
Excellence at its research Center, Sangam, in Bangalore, where customers will
be able to experience the various mobile applications developed by Wipro to
mobilize SAP. This Centre of Excellence will also be used to develop newer
industry frameworks that can be used across different customer verticals.

Mr. Sunil Jose further added, “Sybase is in the best position to support the
movement away from siloed mobile applications to the mass adoption of mobility
across the entire enterprise. With the growing number of end users and device
types to the demand for real time access to information, our enterprise
mobility platform is unrivaled in the industry. We believe our position in
Gartner’s leader quadrant is a further validation of the significant
advancements made to our Sybase® Unwired Platform and success in building out
our partnership ecosystem”.
 
Recently, Gartner, Inc. positioned Sybase in the Leaders quadrant in its Magic
Quadrant for Mobile Enterprise Application Platforms (MEAP) report, authored by
William Clark and Michael King (December 2009). “We believe that more than 95%
of organizations will be choosing MEAP or packaged mobile application vendors
as their primary mobile development platforms through 2012,” states the Gartner
report. “From 2010 through 2013, the number of enterprises choosing
multichannel MEAP vendors will rise 10% annually.”
