EPCIS is a ratified EPCglobal standard designed to facilitate RFID data sharing The ability to share the same data resource with multiple applications or users. It implies that the data are stored in one or more servers in the network and that there is some software locking mechanism that prevents the same set of data from being changed by two people at the same time.  between organizations within enterprises and across trading partner ecosystems. With this announcement, Reva is re-affirming its commitment and ability to deliver standards-based RFID infrastructure solutions that accelerate the global adoption of RFID technology.

Reva's EPCIS data capture implementation builds on its certified ALE (Application Level Events EPCglobal standard) engine to deliver RFID data formatted for transmission to remote EPCIS data repositories. The Reva EPCIS data capture module seamlessly integrates with enterprise EPCIS data repositories operating as an external hosted service or as an enterprise managed resource.

"Sharing accurate RFID-based data between trading partners drives benefits up and down the supply chain," said Peter Blair, director of product marketing at Reva Systems. "EPCIS is becoming the standard mechanism by which many enterprises will enable this critical data exchange. However, before you share the data you have to capture it and this is where Reva's EPCIS data capture and reporting capabilities make it simple to deploy this capability in any environment, anywhere in the world."

The Reva Tag Acquisition Processor (TAP) is an RFID network infrastructure appliance that delivers accurate, actionable RFID data for enterprise integration frameworks, real-time applications and now EPCIS data repositories. Reva's solution also includes the Reva Management Console which is a graphical tool for configuring RFID-enabled facilities and data services. Built-in data service interfaces are provided for SAP Auto-ID Infrastructure, IBM (International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, NY, www.ibm.com) The world's largest computer company.
