NetManage Librados Adapters Offer Easier Access to Back-End Systems for Xcalia
Xcalia Incorporates Librados Adapters into its Flagship Product for Improved End-to-End Data and Service Integration
Cupertino, Calif. — Monday, July 18, 2005 — NetManage, Inc. (NASDAQ: NETM),
a software company that provides solutions for accessing, Web enabling and integrating
enterprise information systems, today announced that Xcalia, a leading provider of business
integration software, has embedded NetManage Librados adapters into their Xcalia
Intermediation Platform™. Xcalia dynamically integrates heterogeneous data, including
legacy and mainframe data, with new and existing services including both Web (SOAP, etc.)
and legacy (CICS, IMS, MQ-Series, etc.) to deploy mission critical, high-performance
transactional composite applications. Xcalia offers several service modules as part of the
intermediation platform. NetManage Librados JCA Plus CICS and JCA IMS adapters are
incorporated into the Xcalia Mainframe Services module and other adapters are also used in
the Packaged Application Services module. With the added connectivity benefits of
NetManage Librados adapters, Xcalia can now provide customers end-to-end solutions for
data and service integration.
"Enterprises must be able to respond quickly to changing business requirements. We
simplify SOA implementations for our customers and allow them to configure, not code, new
applications from existing resources, reducing the costs associated with data and service
integration," said Pierre Violo, CEO of Xcalia. "With the NetManage Librados adapters, it is
easier for customers to connect Java applications to legacy mainframe, packaged, or any
kind of application."
The Xcalia Intermediation Platform is a critical component of a SOA that sits between the
business and data layers to align business processes with applications and manages ongoing data and service
interaction. It features a single, reusable, virtual repository that
provides consistent access to data and services, delivers real-time updates at runtime, and
works seamlessly with open source and proprietary IT infrastructure assets to develop and
deploy composite applications.
Librados JCA Plus adapters expose backend enterprise system functionality and data into
any J2EE-compliant application server, Web server or stand alone environment, without
being locked-in to any server vendor. Enterprise applications can be Web-enabled and
integrated with business processes from other enterprise information systems without any
programming effort. In addition, with NetManage's pure Java Librados JCA Plus adapters,
there is no other software to install outside of the server environment. Moreover, with
NetManage Librados adapters, the prohibitive cost of EAI is avoided through NetManage's
unique royalty-free source code licensing option for independent software vendors, as well
as low-cost server and site license options for end customers and comprehensive
maintenance and support.
"The partnership with Xcalia is a win-win situation for all those involved—Xcalia gets a
proven adapter technology that is easy to implement and 100 percent standards-based,
while NetManage expands its distribution base across the globe," said Zvi Alon, president,
chairman and CEO at NetManage, Inc. "Our joint customers benefit from a powerful solution
for integrating legacy and mainframe data and services to develop and deploy transactional
composite applications."
