RWAV Rogue Wave Software (MM)

Rogue Wave Software Sales Momentum Continues to Grow From New Technology Offerings Company's Emergence as a Provider of Service-Oriented Architecture Solutions Facilitates New Era of Expansion BOULDER, Colo., Nov. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- The growing adoption of the service-oriented architecture (SOA) paradigm continues to fuel demand for new solutions from Rogue Wave Software, Inc. , a leading provider of reusable software components and services that facilitate application development. Prominent companies such as Deutsche Bank, ING, and Verizon have selected Rogue Wave's Lightweight Enterprise Integration Framework (LEIF) to help them quickly integrate business-critical C++ applications into a SOA. SOA is an emerging, service-based application architecture where full- scale functionality is achieved through the connection of multiple, network- enabled services. The agility of this type of architecture enables companies to incrementally and cost-effectively expand application functionality as business needs change. By providing a comprehensive solution for fabricating services in C++, Rogue Wave's LEIF allows organizations to leverage their investment in traditional C++ applications while reaping the rewards of a SOA. "The demand for LEIF continues to expand in a variety of key industries, notably financial services, telecommunications, and technology," said Thomas Gaunt, Rogue Wave's vice president of North American sales. "Customers in these industries are adopting SOA and have an immediate need to integrate their existing C++-based applications with other technologies such as Java and .NET in this environment. We're pleased to see them turning to Rogue Wave's next generation products to extend the life of these assets with XML and Web services." Pioneer Investment Management, a leading global investment manager, used LEIF to expose C++ risk calculation libraries to Java and .NET clients, forming the basis of a distributed risk management system. "LEIF enabled Pioneer Investments to maximize our critical C++ assets, while laying the foundation for the emerging technologies we need to stay competitive and productive," said Tom Walsh, Senior C++ Consultant for Financial Engineering at Pioneer. Other Rogue Wave Software customers who have adopted LEIF include: London Clearing House, Global Movies Direct, HSBC, Bottomline Technologies, Abbey plc, and New York Mercantile Exchange.
