Benefits of technology

[0014] In accordance with the invention, mobile clients gain access to business enterprise data sources through configurable Views that interface with the data sources through Data Objects that are defined by Commands, which in turn communicate with the data sources through Connectors (also referred to as Adapters). Each type of View will interface to the data sources with a different functionality so that communications links and other system resources can be used more efficiently. For example, the View types can include Direct Views, Derived Views, Delegated Views, and Definition Views. These new View types can provide greater control over data interfaces and can be configured for greater utilization of system resources.
[0015] Direct Views are Views that retrieve data directly from an enterprise data source. Derived Views request data from a server that retrieves a base set of associated data at runtime from the enterprise data sources and then places the retrieved data into a relational data engine (RDE) that applies Derived View filter parameters to extract filtered data and provide it to the requesting Derived View type. The Delegated View will periodically retrieve data from the enterprise data sources and will place the retrieved data into a Relational Data Engine cache from which subsequent mobile client requests for enterprise data can be filled, thereby reducing the data traffic between the mobile client and the data sources. The Definition View permits control over where retrieved data is maintained, either at the system server or at the mobile client, thereby extending control over utilization of system resources.

Problems solved by technology

Although many companies have realized significant savings and efficiencies from deploying such systems, it is also true that many organizations find the systems burdensome to implement and difficult to integrate with existing legacy data systems.
One important impediment to greater adoption of CRM and ERP systems that employ such mobile devices involve integration with other data in the enterprise.
Enterprise data integration issues can arise because mobile applications often come in proprietary, closed architectures that impede integration with other data systems of the enterprise.
The interim store, however, creates data update and conflict issues of its own.

Embodiment Construction

[0036] In a mobile data integration system constructed in accordance with the invention, mobile clients running an application interface with enterprise data sources through configurable View objects that access data through Data Objects that are defined in terms of Command objects that interface with the enterprise data sources through Adapters (also called Connectors). The multiple types of Views that are supported can provide greater adaptability to thereby extend the capabilities of the system and provide greater flexibility. Each type of View will interface to the data sources with a different functionality so that communications links and other system resources can be used more efficiently.

[0037] As described further below, in the illustrated embodiment, the View types include Direct Views, Derived Views, Defined Views, and Designated Views. A Direct View will retrieve data directly from an enterprise data source via the Data Objects, Commands, and Adapters. A Derived View wi...

Abstract

A data architecture provides mobile clients with the ability to gain access to business enterprise data sources through configurable Views that interface with the data sources through Data Objects that are defined by Commands, which in turn communicate with the data sources through Connectors (also referred to as Adapters). Each type of View will interface to the data sources with a different functionality so that communications links and other system resources can be used more efficiently. The View types can include Direct Views, Derived Views, Delegated Views, and Definition Views.
