INPRISE/BORLAND JOINS IBM AND MICROSOFT TO SUPPORT NEW INTEL(R) ITANIUM PROCESSOR PLATFORMS.At the Intel Developer Forum Intel Developer Forum (IDF), is a twice yearly gathering of technologists to discuss Intel products and products based around Intel products. The first IDF was in 1997. There is usually a Spring IDF and a Fall IDF. , Inprise/Borland (Nasdaq: INPR INPR Institute for National Policy Research (Taipei, Taiwan) INPR Inventory Project Report INPR International Network on Personal Relationships ) announced that Inprise/Borland will port its Borland(R) JBuilder, Inprise Application Server See Borland AppServer. , VisiBroker(R) for Java(R) and JDataStore for platforms based on the Intel(R) Itanium processor. The software will be ported to the Microsoft(R) Windows(R) 2000 64 bit and Red Hat Linux Red Hat Linux, assembled by Red Hat, was a popular, "middle-aged" Linux distribution (not as old as Slackware but older than Ubuntu) upon its discontinuation in 2004.[1] Red Hat Linux 1.0 was released on November 3, 1994. 64 bit operating systems running Java 2 v1.3 runtime from IBM (International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, NY, www.ibm.com) The world's largest computer company. IBM's product lines include the S/390 mainframes (zSeries), AS/400 midrange business systems (iSeries), RS/6000 workstations and servers (pSeries), Intel-based servers (xSeries) . All of Inprise/Borland offerings on Intel IA-64 architecture (IA-64) -- including Intel Itanium processor-based systems -- will be compatible with what are available on IA-32 today Inprise/Borland has capitalized on its experience in creating software for Intel 32-bit architecture to enhance and improve the performance of its Java tool set and application server runtime environments for Intel Architecture. Companies can benefit from using the integrated Java solution created by Inprise/Borland to build, deploy and manage next generation, 64-bit enterprise applications for forthcoming Itanium processors with confidence to keep pace with the increasing demands of an e-business environment. Inprise/Borland is working closely with Intel to ensure that JBuilder, Inprise Application Server, VisiBroker for Java and JDataStore are optimized for the Itanium processor and are running on the Java 2 v1.3 runtime provided by IBM for Microsoft Windows 2000 64-bit operating system or Red Hat 64-bit Linux for the Itanium processor. |
