OpenORB Enterprise Suite 1.2 Provides Performance, Scalability,
Interoperability for Distributed Enterprise Applications

Latest Version of Most Compliant Java ORB also Available through Commercial
License from Intalio

San Mateo, Calif. August 15, 2001 The ExoLab Group, the sponsor of
open source projects for the enterprise, announced today the immediate
availability of OpenORB Enterprise Suite 1.2. A complete CORBA 2.4 ORB,
version 1.2 offers considerable improvements in terms of performance,
scalability, and interoperability.

OpenORB was designed to perform in enterprise class, client-intensive
environments. This focus has resulted in performance increases of over 700
percent for OpenORB Enterprise Suite 1.2, enabling 750 invocations per
second when tested with 500 clients running concurrently.

The OpenORB Enterprise Suite plays a vital role in our Open Source
 program, said Jesper Pedersen, Open Source Solution Manager of IT+,
Denmark. The suite provides us with a stable and high performance platform,
which makes our J2EE solutions scale. The extensive developer community
around OpenORB is able to provide quick and responsive support and updates
if problems are found.
OpenORB provide an impressive alternative to commercial CORBA
implementations on the market today.

OpenORB Enterprise Suite is a Java[TM] implementation of the latest CORBA
specifications and allows firms to easily develop and deploy large volumes
of applications in heterogeneous environments. Benefiting from several years
of development experience in a previous project called JavaORB, the OpenORB
Enterprise Suite implements a completely new standards-based architecture
designed for scalability, modularity, and customizability.
