The Stay-Linked portion of the newly integrated solution stack is based oneSP's unique Client2Host™ architecture, whereby all terminal emulationand client device/session control runs natively on the same host system asthe Telnet or SSH server, with only a thin-client software component oneach wireless terminal device. Stay-Linked's Administrator GUIapplication provides unique ATSM capabilities for centrally deployedIT/support staff to monitor, share, transfer and take over host-basedwireless terminal user sessions in real time, whether or not the deviceitself is still functional or connected to the host system.
Commented Tom Robinson, Odyssey Software's executive vice president, salesand marketing: "This is perfect synergy because our Athena DeviceManagement Suite is console-agnostic, which lets our customers leverageexisting investments. Our business model depends on partnerships toprovide best-of-breed solutions to round out a very complicated task tosolve. Utilizing the Stay-Linked Administrator console this way, onesimply right-clicks on the desired session, and the Athena devicemanagement interface pops up automatically using the TCP/IP address of thedevice being used as its target; Stay-Linked maintains the intelligence asto the specific device being used for each user's host-based terminalemulation session."
Odyssey's ADMS allows the session manager to remote-control a mobilewireless hand-held device, implement changes to the mobile device remotely,and lock down applications and settings. It also provides a means for themanager to train confused users.
eSP and Odyssey will continue to sell and support their own productsseparately, while jointly marketing the combined solution stack'scompetitive advantages to resellers and system integrators certified onboth products. They will also make it available to device manufacturers toleverage as "added value" to their hardware.
