System integrators use WebSphere® Premises Server and its related products to implement sensor solutions for business problems. To learn more about this technology, refer to What are sensors and actuators?
One type of sensor solution uses RFID devices, such as tag readers, edge controllers, and WebSphere Premises Server. For more descriptions of supported scenarios in which these devices and servers are used, refer to Example usage scenarios.
WebSphere Premises Server also integrates with WebSphere RFID Information Center to enable solutions to manage and integrate RFID information with enterprise applications, as well as to securely share RFID information and events with selected trading partners in an EPCglobal standards-based repository.
The WebSphere Premises Server solution employs various agents and adapters to control I/O devices, filter tag information, and perform other tasks in the Data Capture and Delivery domain.
For more information on devices, Data Capture and Delivery controllers, and WebSphere Premises Server, refer to the topics under Components.
