Published September 9, 2002 / Press Releases
PolarLake v2.0 delivers a high performance, scalable and easy to use solution for enterprises wishing to integrate and extend existing systems with XML and Web Services.
PolarLake today announced the release of PolarLake v2.0, a major new version of its Enterprise XML and Web Services platform for Java™ technology.
PolarLake v2.0 delivers a high performance, scalable and easy to use solution for enterprises wishing to integrate and extend existing systems with XML and Web Services.
PolarLake v2.0 includes significant new functionality in the areas of XML schema support, management capabilities and support for enterprise messaging middleware standards. PolarLake v2.0 also adds Sun™ ONE Studio as a supported component development environment.
Based on its patent-pending Dynamic XML Runtime™, PolarLake is ideally suited for deploying complex XML and Web Services processing, as required by diverse industries such as financial services (for Straight Through Processing and back-end processing systems) and telecommunications (for next generation service creation and management).
PolarLake's CEO, Ronan Bradley, said:
"PolarLake is focused on the key problems faced by enterprises attempting to integrate and extend existing systems with XML and Web Services." He added, "PolarLake uniquely delivers impressive productivity gains while meeting the performance, reliability and scalability requirements of the most mission critical deployments."
Mr. Kiyoshi Ishii, Department Manager, Business Planning and Development Department, Hitachi Systems & Services, Ltd., said:
"We believe that XML and Web Services are becoming increasingly important technologies for companies in today's Internet-based global environment. We expect that PolarLake's advanced, cost-effective and sophisticated Java-based products will accelerate the adoption of Web Services and XML technologies by companies' IT departments."
Speaking on behalf of SpiritSoft, Kevin Gibbs, CEO, said:
"Financial services are moving to XML today. Our partnership with PolarLake allows us to provide our customers with essential capabilities to process XML-based business documents, integrated seamlessly into our proven JMS messaging products. PolarLake's integrated Web Services support makes it the only product available capable of addressing the enterprise needs today and providing an easy route to the Web Services architectures now emerging."
CEO and President at Midwest Wireless, Dennis Miller, said:
"By using PolarLake, we were able to leverage the potential of XML and Web Services to deliver a complex service in record time. PolarLake will allow us to continue to innovate and create new services easily without disrupting our existing systems. The flexibility of PolarLake allows us to be driven by business requirements, not technology limitations."
Peter Williamson, Sales & Marketing Director at Woodbine Software, commented:
"Woodbine's customers in the financial services and telecommunications sectors in Scandinavia require total reliability and scalability. For the J2EE™ community, there is no alternative to PolarLake when it comes to mission critical deployment of XML and Web Services."
Art Gould, Senior Manager, Strategic Relations, Sun Microsystems, said:
"PolarLake's Enterprise XML and Web Services platform works in conjunction with our Sun ONE Studio Integrated Development Environment (IDE) to provide customers with flexible and rich integration across the extended enterprise. PolarLake is a pioneering developer in the Web Services arena."
Speaking on behalf of Beacon-IT, Minoru Inui, General Manager, Internet Product Development said:
"I am very impressed with the PolarLake product. I have seen nothing as functionally complete or easy to use. PolarLake used in conjunction with our XML middleware for mainframe applications product, EXTES® Xuras®, allows enterprises to integrate and extend the mission critical mainframe-based systems with XML and Web Services."
