Systinet Unlocks IBM MQ Applications for Web Services and SOA.CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- Systinet Server Brings Low-Cost Web Services Interoperability The Web Services Interoperability Organization (WS-I) is an industry consortium chartered to promote interoperability amongst the stack of web services specifications. to 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) WebSphere MQ Customers with ReliableMessaging, Publish/Subscribe and Content-based Routing Systinet, the provider of the leading foundation for SOA governance and lifecycle management, today announced the release of Systinet Server for IBM WebSphere MQ, the latest addition to the company's standards-based Web services enablement platform for Java, C/C C/C Center to Center C/C Combustion Chamber C/C Command/Control C/C Crew Chief C/C cabin cruiser (US DoD) C/C chief complaint (medical) C/C Channel-to-Channel C/C Communication and Collaboration ++, and message-oriented middleware (MOM) applications. The Systinet Server is the industry's most proven, standards-based solution to reliably interoperate WebSphere MQ applications with Web services and without the need to install any proprietary middleware hardware or software. IBM WebSphere MQ customers now have a low-cost, high-return approach to reusing enterprise application business logic and data and to quickly evolve to new 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. applications. The major customer benefit is less investment in proprietary integration middleware and more resources to spend on new SOA business services. Based on Systinet's fifth-generation Web services-enablement platform, Systinet Server for IBM WebSphere MQ reliably connects proprietary IBM MQ applications to any standards-based Web services endpoint at a fraction of the cost of proprietary bundles. Systinet Server for IBM WebSphere MQ adds an abstraction layer that preserves all of the functionality of the MQ application while providing unique support for important Web service standards, including WS-ReliableMessaging, WS-Eventing, WS-Addressing, and WS-Security. Customers also have the option to incorporate SOA governance and business services lifecycle management with the latest release of the Systinet Registry. The latest version also features a content-based routing (CBR (1) (Computer-Based Reference) Reference materials accessible by computer in order to help people do their jobs quicker. For example, this database on disk! (2) (Constant Bit Rate) A uniform transmission rate. ) Web service that creates routing scenarios based on message content. For example, messages are routed to servers with different performance or data based on their origin. In addition, the CBR service allows implementation of SLA levels, routing based on amounts, regions, and other criteria and is the most loosely-coupled routing mechanism that is independent on any physical or logical topology. "Real world SOA means building a Services layer of abstraction See abstraction layer. on top of existing heterogeneous IT environments," said Jason Bloomberg, Senior Analyst with ZapThink LLC. "By building standards-based bridges to existing MOM technologies like WebSphere MQ, Systinet enables companies to craft scalable, loosely coupled Services that leverage a broad range of existing technologies. Systinet Server's content-based routing in particular is especially suited to enabling the abstraction layer so essential to enterprise SOA." Systinet Server for IBM WebSphere MQ joins the company's suite of Web services for interoperability with EAI and MOM-based applications using TIBCO TIBCO The Information Bus Company RV and SonicMQ, as well as a number of products available for commercial or customer JMS-based messaging solutions. "Systinet Server for IBM WebSphere MQ makes it easy and cost-effective to take proprietary MQ applications and make them full participants in a service-oriented architecture, with no loss of functionality," said Tom Erickson, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. at Systinet. "This approach makes the most of existing investments while embracing the new paradigm of SOA." Message-oriented middleware is a proven technology for many integration requirements and many companies have already made costly investments in the technology to aid in Enterprise Application Integration (EAI). However, there are several challenges with MOM-based EAI including difficulty in extending to new environments and across organizational boundaries as well as being costly and timely to develop and maintain. Systinet Server for IBM WebSphere MQ meets this challenge by allowing companies to apply Web services technology and SOA techniques to better leverage and extend their existing IBM middleware infrastructure. This results in lowered development and operational costs as well as the ability to introduce new applications. AVAILABILITY AND PRICING Systinet Server for IBM Websphere MQ is available immediately. A free downloadable evaluation is available on www.systinet.com. Typical configuration pricing starts at $35,000.
