BlackBerry MDS Integration Service
The BlackBerry® MDS Integration Service permits you to install, update, and manage BlackBerry MDS Runtime
Applications on BlackBerry devices. The BlackBerry MDS Integration Service supports standard methods of integrating wireless applications and enterprise applications, for example, by permitting BlackBerry MDS Runtime Applications to access and use web services on an application server.
Your organization’s developers can create BlackBerry MDS Runtime Applications using the BlackBerry® MDS Studio or BlackBerry® Plug-in for Microsoft® Visual Studio®, and publish the applications to the BlackBerry MDS Application Repository. You can install, update, and remove BlackBerry MDS Runtime Applications on BlackBerry devices over the wireless network, and
you can manage different versions of BlackBerry MDS Runtime Applications.
