iWay Software Expands Universal Adapter Suite for IBM WebSphere

AmBev and Others Benefit From Enhanced Connectivity Between IBM WebSphere Products and Enterprise Information Assets decentralise

NEW YORK, NY (May 05, 2009) –

iWay Software, an Information Builders division and innovator of enterprise integration solutions, today announced the continued momentum of iWay adapter projects with IBM WebSphere business integration offerings. The company now offers support for WebSphere Message Broker, WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit, WebSphere Process Server, WebSphere ESB, and WebSphere Integration Developer.

Developed on, and built for, IBM WebSphere technology, the iWay Universal Adapter Suite for IBM middleware, now includes all iWay customized adapters for IBM customers, which are provided via a new on-demand delivery model. This allows companies to more effectively leverage underlying technologies for service-oriented architecture- (SOA) and WebSphere-based deployments. For example, AmBev, the biggest private producer of consumer goods in Brazil and the biggest brewery in Latin America, is leveraging the iWay adapter for i2 for WebSphere Message Broker and WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit to integrate their global transportation management systems to SAP.

The iWay Universal Adapter Suite for IBM middleware enables unparalleled connectivity for industry-leading applications to IBM’s middleware offerings. Recent iWay Software engagements with IBM customers include the following adapters: i2, Manugistics, Connect:Direct, HL7, MLLP, FIX, JD Edwards, Oracle eBusiness Suite, Amdocs/Clarify CRM, and MSMQ. iWay continues to provide adapters for these additional applications: Ariba, Baan, Broadvision, Documentum, Lawson, MFG/PRO, Oracle Retek, Salesforce.com, Tibco, and more.

“We are helping companies accelerate business integration by providing a foundation for business agility with a low cost of entry and full project reusability,” said Gerald Cohen, president and CEO of Information Builders. “Our simply assembled and configured off-the-shelf components allow for rapid data access and application integration without lengthy custom coding, expensive systems overhauls or costly delays.”

Also at IBM Impact 2009, iWay Software introduced a Salesforce.com resource adapter for WebSphere Integration Developer (design-time discovery and configuration), WebSphere Process Server, and WebSphere ESB run-time environments. The Salesforce.com adapter is available for free trial purposes at the Information Builders/iWay Software booth #P1B in area ZOS.
