Computerworld Names Wily to List of Top 100 Emerging Companies in 2002

Burlingame, CA - December 19, 2001 - Wily Technology, Inc. (www.wilytech.com), the leader in Java Web Application Management, today announced that it has been chosen by Computerworld as one of the Top 100 Emerging Companies for 2002. Computerworld recognized Wily for IT innovation in the Web Infrastructure, Software and Management category. Wily's patented performance management technology ensures the availability of live production Java Web applications by allowing operations personnel to pinpoint performance problems before they affect customers.

"In selecting the Computerworld Top 100 Emerging companies for 2002, the editors and panel members emphasized innovation," said Maryfran Johnson, editor in chief of Computerworld. "These companies are creating products or services that present a new and creative approach to an IT issue, while demonstrating that they have the foundation, vision, and strategy to succeed in the years ahead."

Wily's leadership in performance management software for Java-based enterprise applications is driven by both its innovative technology and deep strategic partnerships. Introscope, Wily's comprehensive performance solution, monitors the performance of live production Java Web applications, application servers and back-end systems at the component level and with near-zero overhead. Without requiring a single change to the code, Introscope's patented Agent technology can automatically pinpoint the exact cause of performance bottlenecks whether an internal Java-based application component or an external interface such as the security server, database or connector.

BEA, IBM, Hewlett-Packard and iPlanet have each worked closely with Wily to ensure that Introscope and their own products are interoperable, making it easier for their enterprise customers to automatically monitor and manage Java application deployments. Together these four vendors account for more than 90 percent of Java application server market (Goldman Sachs, February 6, 2001).

"We are honored to be recognized by Computerworld for our innovation and contribution to Java Web application management," said Dick Williams, President and CEO of Wily Technology. "This award is a tremendous validation of the commitment we've made to bringing enterprise class performance management to the Java platform and the value our solution delivers to companies that need to ensure the availability of their mission-critical Java Web applications."

Computerworld Emerging Company Criteria
