Wily Technology's Byte Code Instrumentation Technology Adopted as Industry Standard in J2SE™ 5.0

Brisbane, CA – September 30, 2004 – Wily Technology, the leader in enterprise application management, today announced its contribution and commitment to standardization of Java application management in the latest release of the Java™ 2 Platform, Standard Edition, J2SE™ 5.0, launched today by Sun and the Java Community Process. Critical elements of Wily's pioneering byte code instrumentation technology that manages the world's most critical applications has now become adopted as the industry standard for monitoring and managing enterprise Java applications through JSR 174 and JSR 163.

As the industry pioneer of Java application management, Wily was selected by Sun to bring its revolutionary technology into the Java platform. Wily and Sun have worked together to implement key innovations of Wily's byte code technology into Sun's most significant release of the Java platform, J2SE 5.0, to bring best-of-breed application manageability to the Java industry. Wily Technology's chief scientist, Jeff Cobb, led and wrote elements of the reference implementation for JSR 163 which adopts Wily's approach to monitoring application availability and performance. These new features of J2SE 5.0 provide specifications for monitoring and management of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). The integration of Wily's technology with the J2SE 5.0 platform is a powerful combination that constitutes the industry's first and only comprehensive solution to provide automatic, component-level visibility across the entire Java-based, composite application infrastructure.

"Application management is critical to continued adoption and success of the Java platform as the foundation for mission-critical applications, which is why manageability is a central pillar of J2SE 5.0," said Calvin Austin, J2SE 5.0 Specification Lead for Sun Microsystems. "By leveraging Wily's pioneering and innovative technology, we are creating a management standard that will improve the quality and efficiency of the Java platform."

Furthermore, by enhancing application deployment through monitoring and management, enterprises reduce the loss of revenue from application downtime, increase customer satisfaction, sustain employee productivity, and speed time-to-value of application projects. J2SE 5.0 is the most reliable and manageable release to-date, which means employees, partners and customers stay up and running longer - saving enterprises an estimated cost-savings of millions per year from application downtime.

"Wily has worked with all the major infrastructure providers, such as BEA, IBM, Oracle and Sun, to integrate its automatic management capabilities into their respective application server platforms," said Jeff Cobb, chief scientist at Wily Technology, Inc. "We are now taking our instrumentation technology and innovative approach a step further by contributing it as a standard in the Java platform, to better ensure that enterprises deploying critical Java applications have the means to effectively monitor and manage application performance. Wily is proud to have played an important role with the Java community in developing one of the most significant releases of the Java platform."
