Butler ranks Sybase as top three vendor in integration and Web services

Johannesburg, 02 Sep 2003

Sybase has been positioned among the top three vendors in the integration market in Butler Group's "EAI and Web Services" report. Butler Group evaluated vendors based on their solutions' ease of use, compatibility with open standards and ability to deliver consistently high return on investment (ROI).

"Sybase's position is well deserved," write Teresa Jones and Ian Charlesworth, Butler Group. "The vendor has brought together a range of technologies and capabilities, and forged them into a solution packed with technical credibility and clear focus."

Butler Group singles out a vendor's commitment to developing and supporting industry standards as a particularly important decision criterion when selecting an EAI solution. Typically, the greatest challenge facing IT staff during the deployment of an integration solution is the linking of products and solutions from varying vendors, based on different standards.

Sybase is committed to open standards, and offers the broadest support for leading B2B business process management and integration standards, including Web services (WSDL, UDDI, and SOAP), RosettaNet and ebXML.

"Sybase has made substantial investments in, and is fully committed to, the EAI and Web services market," says Tahzier Isaacs, marketing manager at Sybase South Africa. "Customers in our target markets - healthcare, manufacturing, financial services and government - can quickly deploy our solutions based on our commitment to open standards, and achieve significant ROI by using integration technology to get the right information to the right people at the right time."

Sybase offers an extensive range of integration solutions, including:

* Sybase BPI Suite, the comprehensive business processes management solution evaluated by the Butler Group

* Sybase BizTracker, a complete business activity monitoring tool; and

* Integration Orchestrator, a cross-enterprise solution to orchestrate applications and processes in and across companies.

Butler Group is Europe's leading independent IT research and advisory organisation. Its mission is to ensure clients are the most comprehensively informed IT and business managers on current, emerging and future technology matters.
