Kabira(R) Announces Creation of a Java(TM) Technology-Enabled Product to Complement Its Kabira eXtreme Transaction Platform(TM) Software (KXTP)
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) SAN FRANCISCO, CA, May 6 / MARKET WIRE/ --
Kabira Technologies Inc., a leader in
extreme transaction processing software for global enterprises, announced
today at the 2008 JavaOne(TM) Conference in San Francisco, California that
it is building a Java technology-enabled product to work with its core
product technology, the Kabira eXtreme Transaction Platform (KXTP)
software. Marrying a Java technology development environment to the Kabira
Runtime enables an application developer to inherit integrated
transactionality, high performance, transparent distribution, persistent
shared memory data, high availability and high-speed channels from Kabira's
technology into native Java applications, while preserving the robustness
of the Kabira runtime technology.
"Our experience over the last 12 years deploying our technology to over 100
customers in 40 countries, in some of the most demanding mission-critical
customer environments around the globe, has allowed Kabira to encapsulate
and harden our runtime technology," said Dirk Epperson, global vice
president of strategy for Kabira. "Now that KXTP can work with an optional
Java technology-based development environment, Java applications can be
deployed in extreme environments that require five-nines (99.999%)
reliability. Often this requires substantially less code as compared with
Java EE or other POJO solutions."
KXTP enables many details to be abstracted away from the developer, so
development effort is focused on custom business logic, not APIs.
Environmental details can be added by configuration, so business logic code
can be re-purposed to new technologies with little or no change, and
application logic changes can be implemented more easily, with a higher
probability of success. Epperson added, "By leveraging KXTP, Java
technology and C++ modules can be seamlessly integrated into a single,
orchestrated, transactional work flow."
"We believe that with Kabira, Java developers can attain robustness goals
that were previously only accessible in the world of Tandem and mainframe
applications," said Paul Sutton, president and chief executive officer of
Kabira. "We designed Kabira technology to deliver the performance of the
big, at the price performance of the small on open systems hardware like
Solaris and Linux." Sutton added, "This means that with Kabira, Java
applications can be delivered with real-time mission-critical performance,
at a fraction of the cost and investment of existing alternatives. At the
same time, this enables companies to scale to meet transaction growth or
the need to support more complex transactions, easily and with more
favorable impact to a company's bottom-line."
Today's announcement signals yet another advancement in Kabira's ongoing
objective to deliver improved efficiency and speed for the 'Critical Middle
of the IT Stack,' that is, to support mission-critical business
applications that require five-nines reliability throughout, up through the
level of each transaction handled.
"Kabira chose to announce this new product in its product line at JavaOne
so it can tap into the experience of the developer, business and analyst
communities," said Sutton. Sutton added, "Over the ensuing few weeks we
will be synthesizing that input with that of our current customers and
information gleaned from beta trials. Our goal is to tune our final Java
technology-enabled product offering in a manner that better meets the needs
of our customers."
Kabira Technologies will be exhibiting in Booth 1126 at JavaOne at the
Moscone Center.
