Java Development Tool Vendors Embrace Oracle9i Application Server
WebGain, NeuVis, Rational Software, Sitraka, TogetherSoft and Other
Leading Vendors Pledge Support
Demonstrating increasing momentum for Oracle9i Application Server
(Oracle9iAS), Oracle Corp (NASDAQ: ORCL) , the largest provider of
software for e-business, announced today that several industry leading
Java development tool vendors plan to add support for Oracle9i
Application Server. Cacheon, Computer Associates, Compuware, Empirix,
ILOG, NeuVis Software, Nuance, Rational Software Corporation,
SilverStream, Sitraka, TogetherSoft Corporation, WebGain and Wily
Technology are working to ensure tight integration between their
products and Oracle9iAS.
At the JavaOne conference in June, Larry Ellison announced a new version
of Oracle9iAS with the industry's best J2EE engine. Since then, momentum
for Oracle9iAS continues to grow. Oracle9iAS provides an integrated
middleware platform that is designed for companies seeking scalable and
reliable deployment for today's high-performance Internet applications.
With this announcement, developers building J2EE applications for
deployment on Oracle9iAS can accelerate development and reduce costs by
selecting from a broad range of industry leading tools which span the
entire software development life cycle.
"Webgain is excited that the Oracle9i Application Server now interfaces
with the WebGain Java Development Studio," said Joe Menard, CEO of
WebGain. "WebGain's commitment to accelerating application design and
development along with Oracle's expanding deployment solutions will
insure that customers can accelerate their e-business initiatives."
Software development tool vendors are recognizing the benefits of
Oracle9iAS, including its lightweight footprint, fast execution
environment, and support for the latest J2EE standards. The vendors
announced today are expected to expand the variety of tools developers
can use with Oracle9iAS for rapid application development, application
testing and debugging, memory leak detection and removal, performance
and scalability bottleneck identification, component assembly, and
application deployment.
"As respective market leaders, Oracle and Rational expect our mutual
customers to benefit from using Rational Rose with Oracle9i Application
Server's J2EE platform," said Eric Schurr, senior vice president of
marketing for Rational Software. "By designing and constructing
enterprise applications in Rational Rose and automatically packaging and
deploying them on Oracle9i Application Server, our customers will be
able to dramatically reduce development times and maintenance costs."
The latest version of Oracle9iAS is proving to be a compelling platform
for application developers. The J2EE engine in Oracle9iAS consistently
performs up to four times faster than other leading application servers.
By dramatically reducing the amount of disk space, memory, and processor
power required to run Java applications, Oracle9iAS is faster to
install, develop, and deploy Internet applications. Combined with tools
from Oracle(R) partners, Oracle9iAS offers developers a fast and
efficient solution for J2EE application development and deployment.
"Oracle9i Application Server is a great J2EE platform for developers --
it is fast, easy to use and has advanced deployment features that help
improve developer productivity," said Bill Lyons, president and CEO of
NeuVis. "The combination of NeuArchitect and Oracle9i Application Server
provides an integrated development and deployment solution which enables
developers to build e-business applications in record time."
About Oracle9i Application Server
Oracle solves the IT challenge of integrating fragmented middleware
products to run an e-business by providing one product that can replace
more than 10 separate point products from other vendors. Oracle9i
Application Server features full J2EE and XML support, built-in
enterprise portal software, high-speed caching, business intelligence,
rapid application development, application and business integration, Web
services and more, all in one package. With Oracle's new lightweight
J2EE engine and extended caching capabilities, companies can save on
infrastructure costs by scaling with software instead of hardware.
