iRise and
Wily Technology Partner to Deliver Enhanced Application Performance
to Java Customers
Brisbane, CA — December 16, 2003 — Wily Technology,
the leader in Enterprise Java Application Management and
iRise, a leading enterprise software and services company
dedicated to bridging the communication gap between business
and IT, today announced a partnership which enables iRise
to utilize Wily's industry-leading solution for monitoring
and managing Java applications in services engagements. Through
this partnership, the two companies will work together to
help organizations ensure Java application availability and
flawless performance throughout all stages of an application
lifecycle - definition, development, testing and deployment.
Used by companies worldwide to monitor, manage and improve
business-critical applications, Wily's Introscope offers
a Whole Application™ view into the entire Java environment,
allowing IT teams to identify performance problems whether
inside the application itself, the application server, or
in back-end transactional and supporting systems. Introscope's
Blame™ technology isolates bottlenecks all the way
down to individual Servlets, JSPs, EJBs, Classes, Methods
and more. Wily's patented low-overhead agent technology gives
IT staff the ability to manage live production applications
and their operating environment 24x7.
iRise is a products and services company focused on helping
business and IT define and deliver custom business applications
for the Web. The company provides a unique combination of
people, processes, and technologies that allows iRise clients
to reduce the time, cost, and risk of custom application
development and systems integration projects. The iRise services
group has teamed with over 100 enterprises to develop and
deploy mission-critical solutions in over 300 engagements.
The company's award-winning flagship product, iRise Application
Simulator, enables business users to validate requirements
and "test drive" software prior to development;
allows business analysts to create a functionally rich, data-aware,
interactive simulation of Web applications without a single
line of code; supports remote collaboration in the requirements
definition process; and eliminates up to 30 percent of development
costs overall.
"iRise's unique practices have a proven track record
for helping companies make the most of their IT investments," said
Stan Chin, vice president of channel operations at Wily Technology. "When
it comes to ensuring high performance, the complexity of
Java application infrastructure can present serious challenges
to enterprise IT personnel charged with maintaining their
Java applications around the clock. It's important, therefore,
that enterprises have solutions like Introscope to continuously
monitor their mission-critical applications and to diagnose
potential problems before they affect the end-user. We have
chosen to partner with iRise because of our shared commitment
to helping companies successfully meet these challenges."
"Wily is the leader in performance management, and
a perfect partner for iRise," said Jacques Marine, executive
vice-president of consulting, iRise. "iRise has always
been focused on helping enterprises build and deploy applications
that are able to perform complex business transactions and
we understand that ensuring high performance is critical
to the customers we serve. This new partnership extends our
reach, allowing us to help companies maintain performance
consistency not only during development and testing, but
also throughout deployment and beyond. As Fortune 1000 firms
make transactional, mission-critical applications available
online to employees, customers and partners, the ability
to maintain customer satisfaction by identifying and resolving
performance bottlenecks in application infrastructure is
paramount."
The relationship with iRise is part of Wily's growing ecosystem
of partnerships. Through its partner programs, Wily teams
with industry-leaders in Java™2 Enterprise Edition
(J2EE) application management, development, deployment and
operation who are helping to define the eBusiness infrastructure
landscape and who are creating high-performance, mission-critical
enterprise solutions for their clients. By working together,
Wily and its partners make it easier for joint customers
to ensure that their Java application projects meet the very
highest standards for performance and availability.
