THE MIND ELECTRIC RELEASES GLUE VERSION 4.1

Two-year-old company The Mind Electric announced recently that it has updated its GLUE Java application server. GLUE has been put together for Java developers who are working to utilize Java objects as Web services. This most recent release is version 4.1, and it supports both Jave IDEs and additional Web services specifications.

In order to better allow developers to use the tools they are most familiar with in the construction of Web services, GLUE version 4.1 supports Borland's JBuilder, IntelliJ's IDAE, as well as the Eclipse development environments.

Version 4.1 also features a new real-time management console that is built aroudn Macromedial's Flash engine, instead of the typical HTML. Also supported are WS-Security and WS-routing, to help facilitate the creation of service-oriented architectures.

Last month, the company released its Glue Web Services Fabric to beta, under the name GAIA. The release of GAIA is part of The Mind Electric's push for the creation of service-oriented architectures. GAIA allows users to monitor and manage all Web services regardless of the service's location in the newtork.

Version 4.1 sells for $1,000 per developer seat and $2,000 for a runtime license.
