Synchronizing MySQL-based applications with Mobile Devices
July 11, 2006

Syncing information between databases and mobile devices is a key issue
facing the wireless data industry. Without better syncing across a range of
devices, data will continue to be stored in back-end systems, unusable or
unleveraged. The mobile application market is dependent on seamless data
synchronization.

The open source project Funambol - the largest mobile open source project
with more than 500,000 downloads - extends to mobile the capabilities of any
database solution. With its DB Connector and native integration with MySQL,
data can be synchronized on every mobile device. Applications on devices can
be built using both Java (J2ME and J2SE) and C++. With native connectors to
SugarCRM, Exchange and Domino, Funambol is the platform of choice to
synchronize data, contacts, calendars, and email on nearly any mobile
device, including more than 700 million devices today.

Funambol CEO Fabrizio Capobianco will illustrate how to integrate SyncML,
MySQL, and Funambol's mobile application server to synchronize email,
calendar and contact info, and customer-defined MySQL data to PDAs and
mobile phones. The discussion will include guidance on where to use
off-the-shelf code, and where the user (or the community) needs to develop
or extend custom functionalities.
