Streamezzo Launches Its Open Development Platform for the Mobile Ecosystem

(Product News, 12 Feb 2008)

Streamezzo has released Streamezzo
Workbench SDK—the company's open development environment, which will empower developers, system integrators and the rest of the mobile community to develop mobile applications once and run them in virtually any mobile environment, overcoming one of the industry's greatest hurdles.

"Cellular data services, mobile Internet, and upcoming 4G technologies hold out the promise of Internet-like ubiquity for mobile applications, but the sheer complexity of porting code to dozens of platforms and hundreds of devices is delaying the market," said Gerry Kaufhold, Principal Analyst with In-Stat. "Streamezzo's solution presents a breakthrough that can jump start revenues for carriers, content providers and application developers."

Featuring an innovative client/server architecture that operates at a layer above the chaos and complexities associated with operating systems and handsets, Streamezzo's Universal Rich Media Platform overcomes the myriad technology issues and industry fragmentation that have thwarted mobile innovation and slowed the adoption of enhanced mobile services.

Streamezzo's platform is certified on over 250 mobile devices and supports all major operating systems/platforms, including: Windows Mobile, Symbian, Brew, Java, Linux, and most recently Android.

Members of Streamezzo's open developer community can freely download the tools needed to build and deploy custom applications and plug-ins using Streamezzo's Workbench SDK, which includes coding features to provide contextual assistance for streamlined coding and validation, along with an integrated emulator to further enhance developer productivity.
