To help Skype continue making inroads into the enterprise, Microsoft has launched Skype for Business SDK (software developer kit). The new product is a set of tools that lets iOS and Android developers integrate Skype’s messaging, audio and voice capabilities into their mobile applications.
The goal of Microsoft’s Skype for Business SDK is to allow Skype to power the communications experience inside applications, so developers can focus on building the unique features of their products. The initial focus of the SDK is to power what Microsoft calls remote advisor solutions that let consumer iOS and Android apps embed communications from external guests to users within a company using Skype for Business, formerly Microsoft Lync.
