ActiveVOS 6.0.2 Release Aimed at Improved Operational Visibility

12/02/2008

Active Endpoints announced the general availability of ActiveVOS 6.0.2 on December 2, 2008, with new features such as service level reporting and other new reporting capabilities that provide a summary of the response times and new scheduling options.



ebizQ received the following:

ActiveVOS is a 100%-standards-based orchestration and business process management (BPM) tool that permits developers, business analysts and enterprises to develop and manage services-oriented architecture (SOA)-based BPM applications. ActiveVOS 6.0.2’s new features build on existing capabilities to provide such functions as service level reporting (provides a granular perspective into average process response time, giving users the opportunity to identify and respond to bottlenecks that affect overall process performance), other new reporting capabilities (include a summary of the response time of the top ten activities of the process, allowing operations staff to optimize running processes) and scheduling options (offer greater freedom and flexibility in defining the frequency of process execution using any combination of months, weeks, days, hours, minutes and seconds).

Previously, ActiveVOS made it possible for developers to reuse plain old Java objects (POJOs) as native web services, providing the ability to invoke stateless Java objects directly from a process. ActiveVOS 6.0.2 now includes the ability for Java objects to maintain state, increasing the number of use cases that can be fulfilled using ActiveVOS’s POJO capabilities.

New platform and operating system support delivers greater implementation flexibility for customers, ensuring they can continue to leverage existing technology assets. ActiveVOS 6.0.2 is now additionally certified with:

  • AIX 5.3 with IBM WebSphere Server 6.1 on IBM Series 5 machines


  • HP-UX 11v3 on Itanium with Apache Tomcat, Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, Oracle BEA WebLogic Server or IBM WebSphere Server


  • IBM WebSphere JMS server



“This latest release of ActiveVOS provides several significant enhancements to better manage existing processes and create new ones,” said Michael Rowley, director of technology and strategy, Active Endpoints. “ActiveVOS 6.0.2 offers improved support for Java developers and greater operational visibility into running processes, allowing them to focus resources on optimizing those that work while improving the processes that do not meet requirements. With ActiveVOS 6.0.2, developers and businesses now have even more incentive to try ActiveVOS, the only truly all-in-one system for rapidly creating SOA applications.”

ActiveVOS 6.0.2 is available immediately for download at www.activevos.com. Customers are invited to download the system for a free, 30-day trial. During the 30-day trial, Active Endpoints’ support is available to assist in the evaluation. ActiveVOS 6.0.2 documentation, samples and tutorials are available and designed with the objective of making developers productive in as little as an hour.

ActiveVOS 6.0.2 is priced at $12,000 per CPU socket for deployment licenses. Development licenses are priced at $5,000 per CPU socket. A CPU socket is the physical processor on the machine, not a count of CPU cores inside that socket. Contact Active Endpoints for pricing for virtualized environments.
