Software AG and Majitek today announced that Majitek has become Australia’s first Strategic Sponsor of the global CentraSite Community.
DARMSTADT and MELBOURNE, 19 December 2006 – Software AG and Majitek today announced that Majitek has become Australia’s first Strategic Sponsor of the global CentraSite Community.
Established by Software AG and Fujitsu, the CentraSite Community’s rapidly growing coalition of Sponsors is committed to delivering on the promise of SOA – interoperability and reuse.
Majitek’s GridSystem is a Grid Application Platform which lowers the cost of complex software environments. It provides a dynamic SOA run-time environment for high performance Enterprise Web 2.0 applications that must have high availability yet provide for constant change.
The CentraSite registry and repository, developed jointly by Software AG and Fujitsu, enables businesses to better capitalise on Service-Oriented Architectures and ensures dedicated support for the complete SOA lifecycle. CentraSite allows organisations to manage and govern their SOA environment and to achieve control and transparency across all IT assets, services, policies and processes.
Within an SOA, CentraSite allows the services provided and used by GridSystem to be fully managed and governed. Integrating directly with CentraSite, Majitek’s solutions provide extreme scalability on-demand in the context of SOA governance.
Through its participation in the CentraSite Community, Majitek will help enterprises to:
- Efficiently expose middle and back office functions as a suite of shared services to online front-of-house applications accessed by millions of customers
- Effectively handle extraordinary peak load or data volume requirements
- Reliably support real-time dynamic configuration, deployment and scaling of all grid-enabled applications and infrastructure
“We are extremely pleased to welcome Majitek, recently lauded by a leading industry analyst group for its product innovation, as a Strategic Sponsor of the CentraSite Community”, said Dr Peter Kuerpick, Member of the Board, Software AG and responsible for the development of their SOA product suite, crossvision.
"The enormous successes of companies such as Google, Yahoo and eBay are driving a new generation of high performance Web 2.0 Application development,” said Jeff Smith, CEO of Majitek. “GridSystem provides a next generation application platform to support dynamic, online environments, and we see a centralised registry and repository such as CentraSite as the logical bridge between static and dynamic sides of an enterprise SOA."
