The
ARIES RFID System is the only server in the world to integrate
both Active as well as Passive RFID devices into a single
system, handling the complex logic of both types of badges
to give you a single window into the health of your enterprise.
Some of the path-breaking features of the ARIES system
are :
|
_
|
Built on the ARIES SDK - a Java-based API for most
aspects of RFID operation, including interfacing with
multiple readers/writers, concentrators, and other enterprise
infrastructure like ONS servers and back-end ERP systems.
This cross-platform system allows you to make your decision
on vendor and platform for the hardware, servers, and
other equipment independent of the RFID server.
|
_
|
Integrates with widely available
RFID hardware, giving you a wide choice of tags, readers,
and technologies, from both active and passive tag systems.
Passive technology includes ISO 18000-3.1 / ISO 15693
read write devices of the frequency ranges 125 KHz, 134
kHz and 13.56 Mhz. A significant feature of the ARIES
system is that it allows for hybrid technologies to be
used within the same system - allowing different hardware
to co-exist and work together in the same environment.
|
_
|
Integrated highly optimized rule-engine, with the ability
to effectively handle high volumes of passive, active,
and hybrid traffic. The ability to process hybrid (passive
+ active) rules within the same system allows for innovative
and novel uses of RFID system combined with spatial
location techniques.
|
_
|
In-built ONS (Object Naming
Services) Engine can be configured to operate either out
of the enterprise database, or lookup to external (third
party) ONS servers.
|
_
|
Supports all major enterprise
databases - including Oracle, IBM DB2, and Microsoft SQL
Server as well as a number of open-source databases like
MySQL and PostgreSQL.
|
_
|
Integrated PML engine for integration
with client/vendor RFID systems. This standardized interface
(part of the EPC standards) makes it trivial to integrate
with external systems.
|
_
|
XML and Message Queue based
integration with ERP systems for best distributed, asynchronous,
and reliable performance. These standard interfaces also
make it very easy to integrate systems without the complexity
of cross-platform function calls.
|
_
|
Object oriented template designs and architecture for
easy and intuitive customization and extension.
|
_
|
Out of the box integration
with the Enterprise Visualization engine - allowing you
to get visual feedback on every part of your enterprise,
and to be able to view, control, and manage your operations
at a level never possible before.
