Sarvega's Industry Leading XML Speedway Acceleration Software Available
on Egenera BladeFrame System

Chicago, IL, November 17, 2004 -- SarvegaT, Inc., a leading provider of
XML networking products, today announced that Sarvega's widely used XML
SpeedwayT Acceleration software has been tested and validated for the
EgeneraR BladeFrameR system. The result is a virtual XML grid computing
solution that delivers a high level of data center performance for XML
Web Services applications in a very scalable platform. 

Additionally, Sarvega has joined Egenera's Accelerate Alliance Program
and Egenera has become a premier member of Sarvega's Partner Program. 

Sarvega's XML Speedway software on the Egenera BladeFrame platform
brings the benefits of virtual grid computing to XML Web Services. The
solution provides high XML performance with a low total cost of
ownership. As a result, companies can use this solution to move core
business applications to a reliable, high performance XML Web Services
computing environment. For example, financial services organizations can
use it for fixed income services, credit markets and equity trading,
where speed and reliability are critical. 

The Sarvega XML Speedway software is standards compliant, including
support for standards such as XML, FIXML, ACORD XML, MDDL, ebXML, XBRL,
as well as others. This makes the Sarvega and Egenera solution
attractive to government agencies and telecommunications service
providers as well. 

"An increasing number of enterprises are using XML Web Services to
address their rapidly evolving business requirements. The Speedway
software on the Egenera BladeFrame system enables organizations to
quickly implement key XML Web Services applications and adjust system
capacity to meet changing business demands. This provides for greater
overall business benefits," said Girish Juneja, co-founder and senior
vice president of product management for Sarvega. "We are very pleased
to be working with Egenera on this groundbreaking effort."

"Sarvega has a record of innovation and industry leadership in XML
networking for Web Services. Our approaches are highly complementary,
both focusing on providing high performance with a rapid return on
investment. We welcome Sarvega to our Accelerate Alliance Program and
are delighted to be working with them on innovative joint products,"
said Mariam Ganem, vice president of sales operations and channel
support for Egenera.

The Sarvega XML Speedway Accelerator addresses critical XSLT performance
and reliability issues, delivering wire-speed XML processing for XSLT
transformation and schema validation. The Sarvega XML Speedway
Accelerator is powered by Sarvega's patent pending XML EventStreamT
technology. It offers mission-critical reliability, flexible
