SAP Afaria is a mobile device management software product. It helps large organizations connect mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers to the company network, and to simplify the information technology (IT) tasks associated with buying, deploying, securing and maintaining such devices. ==History== XcelleNet originally developed the product that would eventually become Afaria, releasing the first version, called SessionXpress, in 1997. It was the first product of the company’s Net-Essentials product suite, and allowed system administrators to remotely manage client systems, including disks, files and sessions. XcelleNet renamed the product to RemoteWare Express later that same year (1997), to CONNECT:Manage in 1999, and finally to Afaria in 2000. Sterling Commerce acquired XcelleNet in 1998, renaming the software CONNECT:Manage (and the group Sterling Commerce Managed Systems Division), but then divested itself a year later. XcelleNet, Inc. became an independent, privately held company in February 2000, and released version 3.5 of the product in May 2000, as Afaria for Handhelds, and version 4.0 in June 2000 as Afaria. Network Computing magazine awarded its Editors Choice award to Afaria version 3.4 in July 2000, and version 4.51 in February 2002. Sybase acquired XcelleNet in 2004.〔 In 2012, Sybase Afaria became SAP Afaria, following the acquisition of Sybase by SAP. Market intelligence firm International Data Corporation (IDC) first recognized Afaria as the leader in mobile device management in June 2001, and has continued to do so every year since, through 2011. In 2011, Gartner identified Afaria as one of the top mobile device management platforms in the first Gartner Magic Quadrant report on the mobile device management market. In the Gartner Quadrant for MDM of June 2014 SAP Afaria is in the Challengers Quadrant. * Version 7.0 SP6: Released September 2015 ( as SAP Afaria SP6 ) * Version 7.0 SP5: Released August 2014 ( as SAP Afaria SP5) * Version 7.0 SP4: Released December 2013 (as SAP Afaria SP4) * Version 7.0 SP2: Released December 2012 (as SAP Afaria SP2) * Version 7.0: Released April 2012 (as SAP Afaria) * Version 6.6: Released September 2010 * Version 6.5: Released November 2009 * Version 6.0: Released December 2008 * Version 5.0: Released November 2003 * Version 4.0: Released June 2000 (as Afaria) * Version 3.5: Released May 2000 (as Afaria for Handhelds) * Version 3.0: Released October 1999 * Version 2.0: Released February 1999 (as CONNECT:Manage) * Version 1.2: Released October 1997 (as RemoteWare Express) * Version 1.0: Released February 1997 (as SessionXpress) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「SAP Afaria」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
