Technical Specifications

The ARIES RFID Middleware 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 REALTIME 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.

_
Built on the ARIES SDK - a completely Java-based API for every aspect 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 hardware vendor, platform, and servers entirely independent of the RFID technology.
