Innovative Portal Solution from Hyperwave

First WAP application and other innovations at CeBIT 2000

Munich, January 17, 2000

Hyperwave, one of the technological leaders in the supply of innovative knowledge management applications and enterprise information portals, will be presenting the new Hyperwave eKnowledge Portal at CeBIT 2000 in Hanover. Together with its partners Avinci, CMG, HLP and SerCon, Hyperwave will be presenting Hyperwave solutions, with examples from practice, on Stand E32 in Hall 6, from 24 February to 1 March 2000.

A portal for efficient information exchange

Hyperwave's newest product is the Hyperwave eKnowledge Portal, which is based on the technologically leading, award-winning Hyperwave Information Server. Internet technologies are used consistently in this portal solution. In addition, it can be used with standard web browsers, which means that expensive client installations are no longer necessary. Hyperwave's Enterprise Information Portals provide staff, partners or suppliers with relevant information quickly and easily. Using a personalized interface, they act as a central location for efficient information exchange within the company and secure business-to-business communication. With the Hyperwave eKnowledge Portal, companies can generate massive time advantages, concludes the well-known Delphi Group.

A premiere: using portals via WAP

A further focal point of the presentation is the first Intranet application via WAP (Wireless Application Protocol). WAP-capable terminals show how efficiently information can be called up and presented using Hyperwave applications. Companies who use knowledge-management systems and Enterprise Information Portals based on the Hyperwave Information Server will in future be able to use WAP-capable mobile telephones to access documents and information in the Intranet irrespective of location. Hyperwave is one of the first members of the WAP Forum and is working with companies in the communications and IT industry to develop a worldwide standard for connecting mobile terminal devices to the Internet and interactive services.

A new interface with SAP

At CeBIT, Hyperwave will also be presenting SAP Connect, developed jointly with HLP: this configurable interface for Hyperwave server products provides a close link with the company's SAP R/3 systems. The Hyperwave applications interface provides staff with comprehensive read and write access to R/3 systems via BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces). The data obtained can be displayed or further processed in Hyperwave-based applications. SAP Connect can be obtained as an option for both the Hyperwave Information Server and Hyperwave eKnowledge Portal and is based on standardized SAP tools and standards. Further interfaces to ERP systems are also being developed.
