“Sybase and SilverStream Software used the Internet World show
here Tuesday to raise the bar on their enterprise application
server and database solutions….”
“Sybase will add the icing on its solutions cake this quarter
with the arrival of Enterprise Application Server 2.0, the
company’s application server that first appeared last summer.
Already a new Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB)-enabled version,
code-named Vineyard, is reaching beta form, and will arrive during
the first half of 1999…”
“Thanks to third-party connectors, the server and its progeny
will also access Microsoft Distributed Component Object Model
(DCOM), IBM’s mainframe query system CICS, and MQSeries data and
messaging, SilverStream said. Support for EJB will come in the next
release, as will support for HP-UX, IBM AIX, and perhaps Linux,
said CEO David Litwack.”
