Bluestone Software and infoShark to Deliver Comprehensive
XML-Based, E-Business Solutions; Bluestone XML Suite(TM) and infoShark
Bridge Solutions Ensure Relational Integrity of Real-Time Corporate Data
PHILADELPHIA and CHANTILLY, Va., March 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Bluestone Software, Inc., a leading provider of Enterprise
Interaction Management, (Nasdaq: BLSW - news) and infoShark, inc., which provides the rapid and easy exchange of valuable corporate
data over the Web, today announced a joint marketing agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, the two companies will provide
businesses with comprehensive e-business solutions through the joint promotion and support of Bluestone XML Suite(TM) and
InfoShark Bridge Solutions.
``Our relationship with Bluestone will provide joint customers with an extensive set of proven XML-based e-business solutions,' says
Barbara Bouldin, CEO and president of infoShark, inc. ``Marketing infoShark Bridge Solutions and Bluestone's XML Suite delivers a
competitive alternative for businesses needing bi-directional Internet access to all of their critical data.'
According to John H. Capobianco, senior vice president and chief marketing officer for Bluestone Software, ``infoShark Bridge Solutions
expand the customer capabilities of Bluestone XML Suite by providing the ability to easily access, manipulate and share referentially
correct slices of data throughout the enterprise outside of a specific application.'
infoShark Bridge Solutions meet the demands of today's e-business environment by allowing business users to effortlessly organize and
manipulate data from many disparate sources and convert the information according to individual business needs. infoShark's Bridge
Solutions eliminate the need for a universal standard by automating the process for sharing data between different data formats and
industries using XML.
To date, certain industries have developed their own set of standards, or glossary of terms, but the data has remained proprietary and
unavailable for use outside their vertical market. infoShark Bridge Solutions free XML data from its industry stronghold and deliver it for
use wherever it is needed. infoShark Bridge Solutions are built on the framework of infoShark's cutting- edge XML CARD Schema.
CARD Schema enables the bi-directional exchange of relational data with XML via the Internet. The XML CARD Schema models
relational data in XML along with all the properties that make it a relational database, such as foreign keys and constraints. This is
important because once the data is pushed out to the Internet to be used, shared and changed, it can be returned to its original source all
in a very secure manner.
Bluestone XML Suite is a leading industry integration server designed to provide a complete application integration and data interchange
solution by enabling bi-directional access to any enterprise data, including legacy applications, while deploying across heterogeneous
environments. Bluestone XML Suite is built on a completely open, standard Java- and XML-based environment that runs on virtually
any existing technology platform.
XML Suite includes Bluestone XML-Server(TM) and Bluestone Visual-XML(TM) for developing dynamic Java and XML applications
to address critical business projects and processes. XML Suite includes support for transformations, XML publishing and processing,
sample e-commerce applications, as well as a communications listener framework for designing and chaining workflow processes and
providing communication to both wired and wireless devices.
