TIBCO Software Inc. and Intel Working Together to Speed Integration
TIBCO Software Inc., a leading enabler of real-time business and the world’s largest independent business integration software company, as demonstrated by market share and analyst reports, today announced that TIBCO Enterprise for JMS has been ported to Linux on the Intel Itanium® 2 processor-based platform. The solution has already proven to speed deployment of applications, servers and databases in several successful pilots with Fortune 500 end users, and provides the reliability, availability and scalability (RAS) features that are critical to the Enterprise Reference Architecture (ERA). The ERA is a collection of best practices for companies and technology vendors to develop, assemble and manage a service-oriented architecture (SOA).
The ERA serves as a blueprint for CIOs and IT architects for establishing a flexible, lasting enterprise infrastructure. It provides the ability to quickly adapt to changes in business conditions, reduces the amount of time spent developing custom code and complex applications, and provides long-term cost savings. CIOs and IT managers can now integrate a broad range of enterprise applications and database servers using the Linux operating system running on Intel Itanium-2 based platforms.
"Businesses are moving to Intel Itanium-2 based platforms running the Linux operating system to reduce the Total Cost of Ownership and boost performance, without compromising the availability and reliability needed for enterprise applications,” said David L. Brown, general manager of Intel’s Software Enabling Division. Intel encourages customers who are considering this solution to work with Intel and TIBCO by participating in the Itanium-2 challenge, an action-oriented try and buy program that reduces risk while empowering customers to move forward on high ROI deployments based on Intel Itanium-2 based platforms."
“We are excited about supporting Intel Itanium 2-based platforms because of its unique EPIC architecture, reliability and scalability features. It offers excellent price/performance, while providing end-users with a choice of operating systems including Linux, HP-UX and Microsoft Windows. With broad application and OEM support, and an expanding user-base worldwide, the 64-bit Itanium-2 processor is ideal for application consolidation (ERP, CRM, SCM, business intelligence) on servers and database consolidation on servers for handling data intensive transactions,” said Derek Collison, senior vice president, Engineering, TIBCO Software Inc. “This is an ideal solution for speeding integration, managing system performance, and understanding its impact on business processes.”
