Many professional software solutions require full control of volume formats and storage devices. For these applications it is necessary to have exclusive direct access to the storage hardware. Due to the fact that device driver and file system development is a time consuming and complex task, software developers and system integrators demand for a toolkit in form of an application programming interface (API) which handles all file system and hardware specific operations. PoINT Software & Systems offers comprehensive toolkits to integrate optical storage into applications. These toolkits provide volume and hardware control for optical storage devices (drives and jukeboxes) for almost all optical media types (CD/DVD, MO, UDO, PDD, BD,…).The SDKs provide a hardware independent programming interface to Windows and UNIX/Linux applications and offer easy to use functions to programmers. No device driver development is necessary, therefore software development costs are reduced significantly. The toolkits enable developers to use different types of optical media for storage and distribution in their applications.
