iWay Software and XML Global Announces
New eBIX XML-Based Integration Server
-------------------------------------------------
Partnership Aims to Reduce Integration Costs by Delivering XML
e-Business Solution
Summit 2001, Orlando, FL - May 21, 2001 - iWay Software, an Information
Builders company and market leader in middleware that accelerates
e-business initiatives through the rapid integration of complex
back-office systems, and XML Global Technologies (OTC BB: XMLG), an XML
middleware company, today announced an OEM agreement to develop and
market a joint e-business integration solution for complex enterprise
environments. Under the terms of the agreement, XML Global and iWay
Software will partner to develop and market an entirely XML-based
integration solution to be branded eBIX (e-Business XML Integration
Server).
eBIX will integrate XML Global's GoXML(tm) Transform, a patented
transformation engine for dynamic exchange of XML, EDI, and other data
formats with iWay Software's XML server and complete Enterprise Adapter
Suite. The complementary technologies will unite in a new XML-based
server product that will allow Business Analysts and Systems Integrators
to access the extensive information assets contained in more than 120
applications and data sources on 35 platforms. The combined product
masks the complexity of back-end systems, allowing users access to all
of the valuable assets in the enterprise.
"This product opens up new worlds of e-business communications," said
iWay President John Senor. "XML includes formats that a wide array of
organizations can agree on, but XML documents frequently must be
populated from legacy applications and data which are hard to reach.
With our ability to open up old legacy systems and new e-business
applications to XML, our customers will be able to create better
integrated applications than ever before."
"One of the greatest challenges in e-business today is finding
transformation technologies that will cost-effectively breathe life into
legacy databases and add value to a firm's information assets," said
Gordon Ebanks, Executive Vice President of XML Global. "The combined
iWay/XML Global solution will give organizations a one-stop solution to
this problem, allowing them to leverage their information assets in a
wide variety of Web-based applications."
The eBIX product will be available immediately through both iWay
Software and XML Global. The two companies will work together to promote
the eBIX product through joint sales and marketing efforts and will also
jointly support the product through their professional services
organizations.
