TIBCO ActiveMatrix™ 2.0 Rolls Out for Optimized SOA Governance

02/11/2008

TIBCO Software Inc. (NASDAQ: TIBX) today announced the general availability of TIBCO ActiveMatrix™ 2.0 featuring expanded capabilities for integration, composite application development and governance under a single platform to better manage heterogeneous service oriented architectures (SOAs).



This latest release enables customers to achieve up to 50 percent greater productivity and lower cost of ownership compared to alternative approaches.

“We want to be able to leapfrog the competition and we believe that what we are doing with TIBCO will enable us to do just that,” said Melanee Haywood, vice president, Engineering and Common Services, Delta Technology Inc. “We expect to recognize at least a 50% hardware cost savings through retiring legacy systems as well as a 25% reduction in developer costs through the reuse of services.”

With the TIBCO ActiveMatrix platform organizations are able to build next-generation applications that combine services created with disparate vendor technologies. The platform also replaces much of the technical coding involved in service creation, deployment and management, giving business analysts, architects, developers and administrators a common environment that streamlines application development. With built-in governance and management capabilities administrators have the control they need from a single, reliable console to easily deploy applications, apply policies without having to change the services, and add load balancing or fault tolerance to keep applications up and running.

In this latest release, TIBCO ActiveMatrix has been expanded to further simplify SOA integration, composite application development and governance under a unified platform to increase productivity. In addition to TIBCO ActiveMatrix™ Service Grid and TIBCO ActiveMatrix™ Policy Manager, new platform components include ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ and ActiveMatrix™ Service Bus. Companies can now build, deploy and manage service-oriented applications with any combination of Java, .NET, service mediation, orchestration, and existing custom and packaged applications. Business and IT users can also collaborate more easily to compose composite applications by leveraging ActiveMatrix 2.0’s expanded support for Service Component Architecture (SCA).

“As organizations embark upon broader SOA initiatives, business and IT users need tools that can help them harness services across multi-vendor platforms and scale to meet the most demanding enterprise environments,” says Matt Quinn, vice president of Product Strategy, TIBCO. “The TIBCO ActiveMatrix product family continues to evolve to help all types of businesses at any phase in the SOA life-cycle to reduce the complexity with developing, deploying and managing service-oriented applications.”
