Sun is partnering with iWay Software to deliver intelligent integration
adapters to Sun JavaTM Enterprise System customers. As part of the
contract, iWay Software will provide optimized adapters for
connectivity to mission-critical back-end systems using the Sun
JavaTM System Application Server 7 or 8.
The iWay Integration adapters are designed to lower the TCO of
applications built with Sun tools by reducing the amount of hand-cooled
connections needed between disparate systems. Sun developers will
benefit from easy integration with outside IT assets by using iWay
Software's Universal Adapter Framework. The adapters are capable of
reusable access to important information assets, while supporting
standards like the J2EETM Connector Architecture and Web Services
Interoperability (WS-I).
"Integrating disparate systems is one of the biggest IT challenges that
businesses face today," says Mark Bauhaus, vice president, Java Web
Services for Sun. "Our alliance with iWay Software to
provide simplified integration solutions for the Java Enterprise System
platform aims to reduce the complexity of accomplishing this business
and IT goal."
iWay adapters can be used to integrate IT assets including PeopleSoft,
SAP, Siebel, Oracle, Tibco, WebSphere MQ, Microsoft Messaging
Queuing (MSMQ), CICS, IMS and BEA Tuxedo. iWay offers a complete
reusable infrastructure for EAI, B2B, e-commerce, mobile business and
e-government.
"We find that nearly every large enterprise uses Sun technologies,"
says John Senor, president of iWay Software. "Developers use Sun tools
to build integral applications that run businesses across the globe. We
are very happy to partner with one of the world's leading technology
providers to help businesses expedite the creation and deployment of their
mission critical applications."
