MITEM Releases MitemView 6.1 - Adds Enhanced Messaging and Open Standards
Support to Stalwart Integration Engine
Release Features HL7, Enhanced XML Messaging and XML Support
MENLO
PARK, CA - April 27th, 2004 - MITEM Corporation, a leading
provider of legacy integration software and business
applications, today announced the immediate availability
of MitemView version 6.1. This release builds on MitemView's
existing capabilities for integration with messaging
technologies by adding Health Level 7 (HL7) and enhanced
XML support. In addition, this release provides Linux
support for enterprises wishing to run MitemView applications
on an open-source platform.
MitemView
natively supports HL7 messaging by fully implementing
and insulating the transport and parsing functions inside
a pre-built MitemView adapter. MitemView is the only
integration engine that allows legacy and HL7 interfaces
to be developed using the same tools and techniques.
This allows health care organizations and insurance
providers to cost effectively develop HL7 interfaces
that enable the sharing of patient data.
With
enhanced support for XML-based messaging, MitemView
enables single-step transformation between incompatible
message formats and legacy application interfaces. This
means that MitemView can play a vital role in the world
of Web services by enabling legacy systems to become
active participants in new service-oriented architectures.
In addition, MitemView's advanced XML processing accelerates
the deployment of new XML-based solutions by not requiring
developers to work with low-level, vendor-specific APIs.
Gale
Aguilar, president of MITEM stated, "We have made
our reputation on integrating 'the last mile' which
we define as the chasm between legacy systems and modern
application integration platforms. With this release,
MitemView further blurs the line between tactical integration
and enterprise infrastructure. MitemView offers quick,
tactical wins, and can act as a long-term, strategic
focal point for those companies designing a true enterprise
infrastructure."
This
version of the MitemView Server runtime is the first
to run on the Linux platform, and provides MITEM's customers
with the scalability and low cost of ownership typically
associated with an open- source platform. Application
development is conducted using any standard Java IDE
that runs on a Windows PC. From within the MitemView
development environment it is now possible to deploy
composite applications that run on Windows, Linux or
Solaris servers with absolute compatibility.
Aguilar
commented, "We will continue to expand the variety
of server platforms on which MitemView-based applications
can be deployed. Now that MitemView runs on Windows,
Linux and Solaris it is a viable choice for any size
enterprise."
MitemView
version 6.1 ships with:
- Enhanced
XML support
- New
HL7 messaging support
- Linux
support for the MitemView Server Runtime - Red
Hat and SUSE
- Enhanced
development tools: Various improvements to the tools
and utilties that comprise the MitemView Software
Development Kit (SDK)
