Cape Clear Updates Web Services Products with UDDI Support
(EMAILWIRE.COM, October 17, 2001 ) CAMPBELL, Calif. -- Cape Clear(tm) Software, a leading provider of Web Services technology, is today announcing the full availability of the latest releases of its Web Services products, CapeConnect(tm) and CapeStudio(tm). These latest versions add extensive functionality to the product range with wider platform support, enhanced development tools, and full UDDI functionality.
CapeConnect Three, a Web Services platform, introduces tools for building Web Services that communicate via e-mail, a UDDI registry, and improved ease-of-use in deploying Web Services. CapeConnect Three also supports Web Services built on diverse platforms, including leading J2EE(tm) application servers, Microsoft .NET, and CORBA(r).
CapeConnect Three is supported by an upgraded version of CapeStudio, the rapid Web Services development tool, which is also being released today. It includes an enhanced UDDI Browser, support for CORBA, improved support for CapeConnect security services, and a tighter integration with Microsoft .NET.
"The first phase of Web Services, the hype phase, is over and the second phase has already begun with Web Services as the new design center and customers building real-world applications," commented Annraí O'Toole, Executive Chairman at Cape Clear Software. "We are working closely with end-users today and providing the functionality they need to maximize the benefits of Web Services. CapeConnect Three further improves the ease with which Web Services are created and with the inclusion of a UDDI registry provides a fast and easy means for companies to manage their Web Services inside an organization or across the Internet."
"Web Services have the potential to solve many of the problems that have faced software developers and business managers when executing on strategies to make best use of new and existing IT resources and systems," said Tyler McDaniel, Director of Application Strategies, Hurwitz Group. "As the Web Services hype dissolves into the reality of building Web Services, a new set of tools and technologies is required to support the creation and deployment of Web Services. Cape Clear is one of the vendors delivering these tools and CapeConnect Three builds on previous releases of the platform to add enhanced functionality such as UDDI and easier-to-use deployment tools, which will aid developers in the creation of Web Services."
"CapeConnect provides a cost-effective solution to the challenge of integrating our Microsoft COM-based Web site with our Java-based customer management system, allowing customers to place real-time orders for British Sky Broadcasting installations through our Web site," said Carl Roff, Application Development Manager at British Sky Broadcasting. "We're looking forward to the enhancements in CapeConnect Three."
CapeConnect Three Features:
----------------------------------------------
Broad Standards and Platform Support
CapeConnect Three includes full support for the latest Web Services standards, including SOAP 1.1, WSDL 1.1, and UDDI 1.0. It is also extensively tested for SOAP compatibility with products from other vendors, including Microsoft, BEA, iPlanet, and IBM.
Complete Web Services Platform
CapeConnect provides a complete SOAP implementation and UDDI registry, providing all the runtime services required to deploy Web Services. EJB and Java class components can be hosted as Web Services within CapeConnect, without the need for a separate application server. CapeConnect automatically generates WSDL for Web Services.
UDDI Registry
The CapeConnect UDDI registry is a complete implementation of UDDI 1.0 and includes a full Web interface for publishing and searching for Web Services. The look and feel of the interface can easily be modified through style sheets, allowing companies to host their own personalized UDDI registries on the Internet.
Asynchronous Web Services
CapeConnect Three now supports SMTP as a SOAP transport, in addition to HTTP and HTTPS, allowing Web Services to communicate via e-mail. Asynchronous Web Services open up a new world of loosely coupled, peer-to-peer communications.
SOAP with MIME Attachments
CapeConnect now allows MIME attachments on SOAP requests and responses, so that non-XML data, such as image files, can easily be incorporated into Web Services applications.
Leading XML Schema Support
CapeConnect generates XML schema representations of all parameters and data-types associated with Web Services, even complex object graphs using arrays, collections, and inheritance. This allows "real-world" systems to be exposed as Web Services, without the need to re-architect.
Comprehensive Legacy Integration
CapeConnect Three includes the ability to generate Web Services from Java classes, EJB components, and CORBA Interface Definition Language (IDL). CapeConnect is fully compatible with Microsoft .NET clients and servers. Supported J2EE platforms include BEA WebLogic Server, IBM WebSphere, and iPlanet. Supported CORBA platforms include WebLogic Enterprise, Orbix, and Visibroker. CapeConnect is the only platform to unite Microsoft, Java, and CORBA around open Web Services standards.
Increased Performance
CapeConnect introduces significant performance enhancements over previous releases, further extending its potential for hosting and deploying large numbers of Web Services both inside and outside the firewall.
CapeStudio Version 1.1 Features:
----------------------------------------------
Complete UDDI Browser
CapeStudio version 1.1 includes an enhanced UDDI browser, which makes it easier to perform sophisticated searches of both public and private UDDI registries. Enhancements include an updated user interface and extensible support for categories, including NAICS 1997, UNSPSC 3.1, and ISO 3166. CapeStudio allows other taxonomies to be added and provides improved support for identifiers, such as Thomas Register codes and Dun & Bradstreet D-U- N-S numbers.
Full CORBA Support
CapeStudio now includes full support for CORBA-based Web Services.
Improved Microsoft .NET Interoperability
CapeStudio 1.1 enhances existing support for Microsoft .NET by adding support for document-oriented and literal encoding styles, support for .NET array declarations, and validation against Microsoft SOAP interoperability tests.
Security and Session Management
CapeStudio now provides full support for CapeConnect Three security and session management facilities.
Enhanced Support for XML Schema
In addition to existing XML schema support, CapeStudio 1.1 provides additional support for diverse array definitions, improved namespace support, and support for the XML schema type xsd:anyType.
