Sonic Software Demonstrates Giant Leap Forward for Application Interoperability at JavaOne 2005.SAN FRANCISCO San Francisco (săn frănsĭs`kō), city (1990 pop. 723,959), coextensive with San Francisco co., W Calif., on the tip of a peninsula between the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay, which are connected by the strait known as the Golden -- Leveraging New SonicMQ(R) C# Client Technology, Enterprise Service Bus (ESB (Enterprise Services Bus) A message broker that supports Web services. See message broker, messaging middleware and Web services. ) Provides Rich Integration Between Java(TM)- and .NET-based Applications This week at JavaOne 2005, Sonic Software (http://www.sonicsoftware.com), the inventor and leading provider of the enterprise service bus (ESB), will provide a demonstration of rich interoperability between Java(TM)- and .NET-based services via an ESB. The demonstration will occur as part of the Java Technology and .NET Interoperability track during a presentation by Dave Chappell, vice president and chief technology evangelist Not to be confused with televangelist. A technical or technology evangelist is a person whose job or role is to promote technologies, usually new technologies. for Sonic Software. This demonstration, which features the new SonicMQ(R) C# Client, further advances Sonic's leadership in providing the most comprehensive infrastructure software for enterprises deploying a service-oriented architecture See SOA. (SOA (1) (Start Of Authority) The first record in a DNS zone file. See DNS records. (2) (Service Oriented Architecture) The modularization of business functions for greater flexibility and reusability. ). The goal of SOA is broad-scale interoperability and process flexibility. Unfortunately, real integration between Java- and .NET-based applications within a common, managed infrastructure has been elusive before now. The SonicMQ C# Client is a pure managed code implementation running within the Microsoft .NET common language runtime See CLR. (CLR (Common Language Runtime) The runtime engine in Microsoft's .NET platform. The CLR compiles and executes programs in Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL). The counterpart to the CLR for the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI), ECMA's standard version of . ) environment. The Sonic demonstration will show a Java and .NET service interacting across an ESB. As part of the demo, Sonic will show how Sonic ESB(R) features, such as the Sonic Continuous Availability Architecture(TM), extend enterprise-grade capability to connect, mediate and control heterogeneous services across a global environment. "The ability to include both Java and .NET services and applications in a common, service-oriented architecture is critical to the success of today's organizations dealing with a myriad of various platforms and technologies," said Chappell. "The goal of SOA after all is broad scale interoperability. Sonic allows Java and .NET to participate as 'equal citizens' within an enterprise-grade SOA infrastructure fabric." "When connecting more than 13,000 suppliers and the largest online marketplaces in the world, you need flexibility in your integration infrastructure," said Jayson Minard, CIO CIO: see American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations.

"Sonic ESB allows us to be very adaptable in how we connect with suppliers and our online channels. The new C# Client will be a big help to us by making it much easier to interact with .NET-based applications in a fully managed environment." The SonicMQ C# Client (SonicMQ is the communications infrastructure of Sonic ESB) allows .NET developers to use a native messaging API to connect to the Sonic broker from any .NET application. The C# implementation is faster, more efficient and easier to manage within the Microsoft .NET environment. An early release of the C# Client is currently available for existing Sonic customers. The Client will be generally available in August. About Sonic Software Sonic Software is the inventor and leading provider of the enterprise service bus (ESB).
