RFID Middleware Market Opportunities, Strategies, and Forecasts, 2005 to 2010
WinterGreen Research, Inc., June 2005, Pages: 480
Middleware, also known as RFID manager software, enables the rapid development and deployment of RFID systems. The middleware absorbs differences in various RFID tags from multiple suppliers and integrates that data, making it possible to build flexible and scalable RFID solutions. The middleware also includes tools to monitor and maintain RFID systems.
Middleware needs to filter non-essential RFID data as close to the source as possible. It is invisible to applications and will not overwhelm the system. The transition from deployments to networks capable of handling this increased load will re quire a solution that is scalable as the deployment grows. RFID traffic is like other Middleware applications or data types like voice and video.
Correct middleware infrastructure helps to ensure the investment protection of RFID networks. As RFID deployments transition from serial to IP and proprietary, closed Networks to standards-based open Networks, interoperability with equipment made by multiple device manufacturers is required.
IBM was the market leader in the broader RFID market for interconnecting the edge servers to applications in distributed and centralized IT locations. Tibco and WebMethods also had measurable market shares in this segment.
IBM was the market leader in RFID middleware with a market presence in enterprise application integration middleware and edge middleware. IBM had shipments of $30 million in 2004 for RFID middleware, representing 25% market share.
The RFID Edge Middleware market is forecasted to grow enormously in the next few years. By 2010 the market is projected as growing to 769.5 million, up just 47 million in 2004. Just one year later in 2011 the market is going double from 2010 reaching 1,557.5 million.
