Iona Technologies and Sun Microsystems announced a technology and marketing agreement that will see Iona offer a version of its Artix enterprise service bus (ESB) for Sun's Solaris 10, and the pair working on Java Enterprise System integration.
As well as joint sales and marketing initiatives, Iona will in the third quarter be offering an ESB that runs on Solaris 10 and that can act as the bridge between numerous disparate environments, for example mainframe, J2EE, message oriented middleware, Cobol, Microsoft .Net and others.
