Includes Zero Downtime Features
SAN JOSE, Calif., Aug. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BEA Systems, Inc.
(Nasdaq: BEAS) announces general availability of BEA WebLogic(R) Server 9.0,
which consists of an enterprise-grade kernel that supports multiple
programming models. BEA WebLogic Server 9.0 is designed to help IT
administrators and developers increase productivity, reduce cost of IT
projects and decrease downtime. The product is designed to help enable
businesses to focus on moving toward Service Oriented Architectures (SOA).
"Companies are looking to deliver premier, custom applications in a
complex, heterogeneous IT environment while quickly responding to changing
demands of business and without experiencing downtime," said Wai Wong,
executive vice president, products, BEA Systems, Inc. "WebLogic Server 9.0 can
help make it possible for organizations to succeed in maintaining these core
objectives while supporting their path of employing SOA."
BEA WebLogic Server is the newest addition to the BEA WebLogic product
family, that also includes BEA WebLogic Portal(TM), BEA WebLogic
Integration(TM), BEA WebLogic Workshop(TM), and BEA JRockit(R). Its unique
enterprise-grade kernel, which features clustering, security, management,
caching and virtual machine technologies, is designed to help make WebLogic
Server faster, more scalable, and reliable than any application server in
today's market. WebLogic Server's high-performance kernel supports multiple
programming models, which can help provide developers with the flexibility to
choose the right application framework for their needs. This includes support
for J2EE 1.4, Spring, Apache Beehive, Web services and several other
frameworks. All of these capabilities can help decrease equipment and labor
costs required to build and sustain applications and reduce the time and risks
affiliated with IT projects.
Reliability has been a key focus area for BEA's WebLogic Server 9.0
Release. Notable features in this version of the market-leading product are
"side-by-side" application installation, which is designed to allow
applications to be upgraded in a running server without causing any downtime.
Also, WebLogic Server 9.0 includes "hot patch" functionality, which is
designed to allow the server to be upgraded without disruption.
To complement WebLogic Server 9.0, BEA also offers Mission Critical
Support (MCS) Continuum to provide High Availability Support to maximize
application uptime. Key features include strategic planning, release and
migration assistance, 24/7/365 direct-connect telephone support from J2EE
experts; remote or on-site dedicated support engineers; and executive
escalation.
