Ascential Supports IBM's WebSphere
Application Server 5
Ascential Software Corporation, an enterprise data integration leader,
announced support for IBM WebSphere Application Server 5.0. The combination of
Ascential Enterprise Integration Suite and Real-Time Integration (RTI)
Services with WebSphere delivers advanced technology solutions to power the
real-time enterprise.
Integrating the Ascential Software Enterprise Integration Suite and IBM's
WebSphere Application Server make the real-time enterprise a reality; enabling
users to take advantage of reliable, accurate and current information
available from anywhere across the enterprise, at any time, to drive strategic
business initiatives. Harnessing the benefits of a service-oriented
architecture (SOA), solutions from Ascential Software eliminate concerns about
data sources, quality, volumes and latency, enabling customers to leverage
information across strategic applications such as customer relationship
management (CRM), enterprise resource planning (ERP) and supply chain
management (SCM).
"Over the last several years, we have been delivering high-performance,
mission-critical data integration solutions in a number of industries,
including financial services, by tapping the strength of IBM's DB2 Universal
Database and WebSphere MQ," said Ascential Software Vice President and Chief
Marketing Officer Mike Cassettari. "WebSphere is a powerful foundation that
enables customers to efficiently deploy the Ascential Enterprise Integration
Suite and Ascential RTI Services."
Through support for interoperability standards such as Enterprise Java
Beans
(EJB), Java Messaging Service (JMS), and Web services, the Ascential Software
Enterprise Integration Suite and Real-Time Integration Services deliver the
benefits of in-flight data integration capabilities for other common
enterprise integration solutions, including business process integration
(BPI), enterprise application integration (EAI), and enterprise information
integration (EII).
"Working with companies like Ascential to provide complementary solutions
for
IBM WebSphere software is part of our commitment to deliver leading-edge
e-business integration solutions," said Tom Inman, vice president of WebSphere
Foundation & Tools at IBM Software. "Ascential is delivering a solution that
will benefit customers through increased operational efficiencies,
strengthened customer loyalty and integrated disparate systems."
