TIBCO Software has released TIBCO BusinessWorksT 5.3, the latest release of the company’s flagship integration solution designed to help customers benefit from a service-oriented architecture (SOA).
TIBCO says the new version offers additional support for emerging Web Services standards, greater flexibility to create services quickly, and integrated partner management support to help ensure re-use across multiple trading partners.
Under the TIBCO BusinessWorks umbrella, TIBCO also announced today an upgrade to its BusinessConnectT software offering – now re-named TIBCO BusinessWorksT Partner Connect – to support business-to-business (B2B) partner integration within an SOA framework.
“TIBCO’s SOA strategy offers everything needed to create, expose and govern reusable services across the enterprise, both inside and outside the firewall,” says Ram Menon, senior vice president, Marketing and Strategy, TIBCO. “SOA technologies and standards focus on the world within the organisation, while the trading partner ecosystem outside an organisation is often ignored. TIBCO’s integrated partner management solution enables the secure exchange of documents and automation of transactions across public and private networks for exceptional trading community management. With these new releases, TIBCO solidifies its position of offering the most comprehensive and flexible foundation for an enterprise SOA available on the market today.”
