RedPrairie demonstrates advanced recall during Microsoft keynote presentation
RedPrairie VP speaks at Professional Developers Conference
MILWAUKEE, Wis. – RedPrairie Corporation, a consumer-driven optimization company, shared in one of four keynote presentations at Microsoft Corp.’s Professional Developers Conference, held October 27-30 in Los Angeles. Shawn Davison, VP of E²e Platforms, highlighted many of the ways Azure™ Services Platform will positively impact information technology in the near future, particularly in the ways of cloud computing.
Davison demonstrated how the platform will enhance RedPrairie’s “One Button Recall” application, designed to completely streamline communication between partners over the Internet.
“The primary advantage of any cloud-based program is the immediate value it adds to a legacy system,” says Davison, “Azure Services Platform leverages this technology, allowing secure interaction between applications across enterprises via Software as a Service (SaaS). This will allow companies like RedPrairie to easily connect their clients with any number of businesses using Web services, providing seamless contact not only within an organization, but outside of it – without the need for extensive, complicated, or dedicated circuitry.”
Davison illustrated RedPrairie’s plans to use the Azure Services Platform in extending clients’ on-premise supply networks across the Web. Doing so, he claims, will allow the company’s customers the ability to recall distributed product with the touch of a button, without the need to manually provide access or instruction for individual carriers.
“RedPrairie’s excellent demonstration in the keynote address with Bob Muglia is just another example of their strong partnership in working with Microsoft to deliver the latest innovations and technical transformations to customers”, said Eddie Amos general manager for World wide Partner Evangelism at Microsoft, “We expect the work RedPrairie is doing with Azure will result in greater value for our mutual customers and the industry as a whole.”
