Active Endpoints Joins Red Hat Ready Program and Announces Support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4

Active Endpoints, Inc., the leading independent provider of SOA integration solutions, today announced the company´s participation in the Red Hat Ready Partner program. Red Hat (Nasdaq: RHAT) is the world's premier open source and Linux provider. As a member of the Red Hat Ready program, Active Endpoints has added support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 to its ActiveWebflow server line. Customers seeking to cost-effectively implement BPEL (Business Process Execution Language) based solutions can now utilize the powerful combination of ActiveWebflow servers and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 to realize the benefits of enterprise-level, open source solutions atop an advanced computing infrastructure.

ActiveWebflow is a family of platform neutral, standards based products that allow organizations to significantly automate process flows internally and across their extended value chains. Unlike proprietary solutions, which interface with the BPEL standard through import and export code extensions, ActiveWebflow comprehensively supports BPEL as its native process language. Through the combination of Red Hat Linux Enterprise 4 and ActiveWebflow, organizations can now leverage a secure, high performance and low cost open-source operating system to develop and deploy market leading BPEL solutions.

The following products are certified compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4:

-ActiveBPEL Engine - Commercial-grade, open source, runtime BPEL environment for executing orchestrated process definitions created to the BPEL 1.1 specification.

-ActiveWebflow Standard - Tomcat-based BPEL server with enterprise level features to handle advanced processing requirements.

-ActiveWebflow Enterprise - BPEL servers with advanced enterprise level features optimized for popular J2EE application servers including JBoss Application Server, IBM WebSphere Application Server and BEA WebLogic Server.

Our customers want to automate and optimize revenue generating and cost reducing business processes quickly and efficiently across a wide range of computing platforms which leverage their extensive ecosystem investments, said Andrew Dennis, VP Corporate Development for Active Endpoints.
