ANEXINET EXTENDS SOA SOLUTIONS IN NEW YORK CITY MARKET

Anexinet Corp, a regional solutions provider based in Philadelphia, announced the opening of its New York office in New York City.

Anexinet will offer its differentiated service-oriented architecture solutions to its New York customers -- with the goals of saving time and money, leveraging existing and future IT assets, and providing access to information while eliminating unnecessary complexity.

With a strong skill set in J2EE (Java 2 Enterprise Edition) and Microsoft/.NET development, Anexinet will extend its expertise and convenience so its New York customers can also simplify application development and decrease the need for programming by creating standardized, reusable modular components, published as loosely coupled Web Services for maximum interoperability.

The expansion also marks the opening of the first New York-based Near-Site Development Center where Anexinet is helping to develop a Web Services Security and Service-Oriented Architecture enablement strategy for a leading pharmaceutical company. Near-Site Development Centers -- which are dedicated workspace and systems, within five minutes of a customer's location -- represent a unique component of Anexinet's project delivery model, because they enable project teams to design, develop, and test customer solutions without disrupting current systems and organization. This minimizes cost, time and resources, and has emerged as a valuable asset to IT executives and their staff.

"We've gained a solid reputation for delivering real technology value, on a timely basis, and for a fair price with some of the top companies in the Delaware Valley," said Diego Calderin, president of Anexinet. "We will utilize the same best practices to help New York customers achieve maximum performance of their business applications."

"With a proven consulting approach in the Philadelphia market, we are poised to help New York companies leverage our SOA solution implementation expertise," explained Che Wijesinghe, newly appointed vice president of Anexinet's New York region, from BEA Systems. "This is truly a competitive differentiator."

Anexinet will soon be announcing an agreement with BEA Systems as the Northeast Value Added Reseller of the BEA WebLogic Enterprise Platform, authorizing the solutions integrator to resell all of BEA WebLogic software licenses, education and professional services.
