XpertMart Retail Software Shown at JavaOne XpertMart Runs on New Jbox June 28, 2005 SAN FRANCISCO, CA., JavaOne Worldwide Developers Conference - June 28, 2005 - XpertMart retail enterprise software announced today that it was selected by Sun Microsystems, Inc. to participate in a joint demonstration of the power of Java in embedded applications at the JavaOne conference at the Moscone Center in San Francisco June 27-30. "XpertMart is a good example of the power and depth of Java SE 5.0," says David Hofert, Group Product Marketing Manager for Java SE Embedded, Sun Microsystems, " XpertMart takes great advantage of Java's GUI, speed, multithreading capabilities, and JDBC functionality to deliver their retail application." When Sun was looking for applications to demonstrate the capabilities of Java SE 5.0 they found that all they had to do was drop in XpertMart's runtime JAR on Solaris 10 and Linux 2.6 running on top of industry standard open databases and it ran with no modifications. "XpertMart's point of sale and inventory control capabilities help us show the capabilities of Java SE 5.0 for embedded use," says Hofert. XpertMart will be shown running on the new Jbox mini-computer created by iGoLogic, Inc. of Fremont, CA. The Jbox is a fully functional x86-based single-board system with an enclosure, power supply, and Java SE 5.0 and Solaris 10 or JDS3 pre-loaded on the system. "The compact size of the Jbox coupled with the power of Java makes it an attractive option for retail stores where counter space is at a premium," says Stephen Searfoss, President of Dinari Systems LLC, maker XpertMart software. Large retailers can deploy XpertMart on the Jbox in their stores and run the back-end on Sun Fire servers to automate inventory balancing and stock replenishment. "Dedicated
Java computers are a more stable and economical option for retailers
than PCs loaded with unnecessary software prone to viruses and
crashes," Says Searfoss. "As a Java solution, our customers
have the flexibility to choose the platform--hardware, operating
system, database manager-- that suites their needs." Sun, Sun Microsystems and JavaOne, are trademarks or registered trademarks of Sun Microsystems, Inc. in the United States and other countries.
