This powerful combination of the Mediasurface application suite and Itanium processor based servers will provide an unparalleled solution to the problems experienced as a result of the explosive growth of e-business content. As site content continues to double year after year [source: Forrester Research, Computer Business Review, March 2000], the company's commitment to providing the most scalable and high performance solution for its clients makes participation in the IA-64 program a natural fit. "Intel's Itanium processor will drive servers to new levels of performance, enabling a new generation of online applications to deliver genuine business benefit at commercially acceptable price points," said Mark Crowne, Vice President of Engineering at Mediasurface. "Mediasurface's use of industry standard cross-platform technologies such as Enterprise Java, XML, Perl and Oracle will enable rapid deployment of the application suite onto the Itanium processor. We will be among the first applications commercially available for the Itanium processor and anticipate full availability at the time when Itanium processor based platforms are commercially available."
