BEA Systems Acquires SolarMetric, Inc.
Grabs Lead in Java EE 5 and Persistence Race
SAN JOSE, Calif.Nov. 3, 2005BEA Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: BEAS)
announced it has acquired the object persistence company,
SolarMetric, Inc., today in a move that will give it an early lead
in the race towards Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) 3.0 and Java EE 5
compatibility, ahead of competitors like IBM. SolarMetric, a
privately-held company based in Austin, Texas, is known for its
Kodo persistence engine, and supports both EJB 3.0 and Java Data
Objects (JDO) programming models.
The draft EJB 3.0 standard focuses on persisting in-memory objects
in relational databases. This means transient objects like shopping
carts or ticket reservations can be stored over time. The JDO
specification allows for persisting the objects in other ways as
well the Kodo persistence engine has developer bindings for both
EJB 3.0 and JDO, which allows developers to blend either standard
in the same application. Customers have the choice to either use
the proven JDO standard, get an early start on EJB 3.0 or add in
EJB 3 .0 over time, as the specification is being finalized.
Laptop Battery SolarMetrics O/R (Object/Relational) mapping layer is one of the
fastest in the industry. All existing products, including the Kodo
persistence engine and the Kodo Development Workbench, will be
available and supported by BEA. Additionally, the Kodo engine will
be integrated into an updated version of the BEA WebLogic Server
release, currently planned for the second half of 2006. A
technology preview of BEA WebLogic Server 9 will be available in
the first half of 2006. BEA will also provide developer support for
EJB 3.0 shortly via its BEA WebLogic Workshop product line.
According to the indictment, Jones would steal various IBM and Penguin computer servers from Verisign's warehouse in Virginia and sell them to Johnson. Johnson would then sell the servers to several individuals, who would sometimes place them for sale on eBay. As a result of this scheme, the indictment alleges that Jones and Johnson caused Verisign to lose more than $120, 000 worth of computer equipment. In the indictment, Jones and Johnson are charged in three counts with causing the interstate transportation of stolen property, namely IBM 330 and 335 servers, in violation of 18 U.S.C.
