Afaria extends Unwired Platform functionality by providing additional device client management features for remote and mobile computing devices, including laptops,
desktops, and handheld devices.
Use the Afaria tools to:
Deploy client and runtime infrastructure components over-the-air
Track assets
Secure devices and data
Launching Afaria from Sybase Control Center
If you purchased Afaria, you can open the Afaria® Web interface administration console to manage Afaria resources directly from Sybase Control Center. This optional step makes Afaria a managed resource of Sybase Control Center.
Setting Up the Afaria Environment
Setting up the Afaria environment in Unwired Platform primarily involves configuring over-the-air (OTA) deployment. OTA deployment requires specific setup of the Afaria server and uses multiple tools to accomplish this task.
