MSC.Software Accepted into the IBM SOA Specialty
MSC.Software announced its acceptance to the IBM SOA Specialty after successfully completing IBM's rigorous SOA technical and business requirements. With this achievement, MSC.Software's SimManager has also achieved SOA Connect status, ensuring that it fully integrates with the IBM software and strategy for SOA.
"SOA is an increasingly important business requirement for organizations because of the business flexibility it enables," said Sandy Carter, Vice President of IBM SOA and WebSphere. "MSC.Software's commitment to SOA provides their customers with a powerful way to reduce integration costs."
MSC.Software's SimManager is designed to bring critical simulation information to thousands of users at the lowest possible total cost of ownership (TCO). Compliance with SOA standards enables SimManager to seamlessly link to all SOA-compliant data sources and applications and allows simulation data to be easily integrated into engineering business processes. SimManager uses SOA-based web services to capture transactions from key operational systems and utilizes XML standards to process data and metadata.
"Working with IBM for SOA helps us provide open, flexible enterprise business infrastructure that will enable us to deliver our solutions to customers with reliability and efficiency," said Bill Weyand, chief executive officer of MSC.Software.
