Patch IT awarded PIM synchronization project

Friday, June 16th, 2006 @ 2:28 am | Java, Open Source

After 1 1/2 months of dry session with projects stuck at pending phase, Patch IT have secured a Personal Information Management(PIM) synchronization project. This project will involve creating a VCalendar/VCard standard generator for a Java Enterprise suite, and new sync modules using Funambol (previously Sync4j) DS Server. I have previously did a project which involve synchronization with Nokia communicator.

This new module will synchronize between the enterprise suite and Microsoft Outlook. PIM data like contacts, appointments and task will be synchronized. Technically, it would take little effort to add support for new devices like smartphones, Blackberry and other SyncML compatible devices after this module is completed. The complicated conflict resolution for this project will be the biggest headache….
