Software AG announced the successful integration of Terracotta technology into its product stack in only five months. The integrated technology offers customers a new clustering solution – Terracotta Server Array – which enables webMethods to take full advantage of cloud-based deployment environments. In addition, Terracotta’s Ehcache caching technology dramatically improves product performance for CentraSite by up to 50 per cent. This release is the first step in ensuring that customers can fully benefit from the convergence of cloud computing.
“We worked quickly to incorporate Terracotta’s technology into our product suite so that our customers could take full advantage of cost savings and performance improvements from cloud and in-memory based solutions,” said Dr. Wolfram Jost, Chief Technology Officer and member of the Executive Board, Software AG. “We want to deliver the tools that will help enterprises gain greater control over their business processes in the most scalable manner possible.”
“The smooth and rapid integration of Terracotta’s technology into the Software AG product suite is a win-win for users of all our solutions,” said Ari Zilka, CTO of Terracotta, a Software AG subsidiary. “Ehcache’s usage grows while customers enjoy massive scale and performance benefits. From here, we will continue on our mission to deliver high-performance solutions that grow with our customers’ applications, all the way into the cloud.”
Software AG acquired Terracotta for its edge in-memory technology. Terracotta’s in-memory processing will provide the foundation for Software AG’s cloud offerings. With in-memory data access up to 1,000 times faster than database access, Software AG can support existing and new customers with significantly larger business process excellence (BPE) projects.
