Understanding the Blackberry Ecosystem - BES vs BIS
BlackBerry ecosystem has been in existence for more than ten years, so it's no wonder that there is a lot of confusing terminology associated with it. The difference between the "BES" and "BIS" is particularly confusing, so let's see if we can clarify what each is and where they fit into the entire BlackBerry infrastructure.
BlackBerry Enterprise Server
BES is an abbreviation for BlackBerry Enterprise Server . As you might guess from the name, BES technology focused on enterprise customers (medium-sized enterprises). These companies use systems such as Lotus Notes, Microsoft Exchange or Novell GroupWise to provide employees with e-mail and other related skills.
BlackBerry Enterprise Server acts as a channel between these systems and staff BlackBerry handhelds. It also provides companies with centralized control of these handhelds. And it acts as a proxy server, so users can view the BlackBerry Internet or intranet. In other words,
- BES = corporate e-mail + intranet / internet connection + control device
To use the BES (and get access to corporate e-mail), BlackBerry handheld must be "paired" with the BES server manages tvrtka.Uparivanje process creates an encrypted two-way communication between the handheld and data poslužitelja.BES monitored mailboxes on corporate e-mail server and uses the data connection to provide instant notification of new handheld e-mail, meeting invitations and calendar changes, etc.
This is a company the BlackBerry ecosystem.
BlackBerry Internet Service
BIS stands for BlackBerry Internet Service . Unlike BES technology, BIS consumer technology. Consumers do not use the central mail server, they address a variety of places such as Yahoo!, Google, or their internet service provider (ISP). BIS allows them to send and receive personal e-mail. It also allows them to browse the Internet from their devices. In other words,
- = BIS personal e-mail access +
After purchasing the BlackBerry handheld, the consumer creates a BIS account and register his or her personal e-mail address of the service. BIS then
This is the consumer of the BlackBerry ecosystem.
BES and BIS coexistence
BES and BIS can coexist on the same BlackBerry handheld. BIS provides wireless carriers. BES provides employers, who buy and install the BES software on the intranet. This means that it is possible to send and receive corporate e-mail and personal e-mail from the same hand, assuming BES IT policies (which allow the employer to control what we paired the device can or can not do and overrides user preferences) does not specifically restrict access to BIS .
This is really possible to get the best of both worlds - the personal and corporate -. On the BlackBerry handheld
