| Summary: | "The Java community supports alternative implementations of the Java platform that fully comply with the Java technology specifications," said George Paolini, vice president of Java Community Development, Sun Microsystems. "The Java community welcomes Tower Technology as the newest licensee of the Java platform and as a participant in the JCP program." "Using TowerJ has allowed us to execute Java technology-based applications with C++ like performance," states David Bailey of Advanced Computing Technical Services in Columbus, Ohio. "When our clients debate between using the Java platform or C++ for large projects we demonstrate that with Java's speed of development and performance enhancements provided by Tower Technology, Java technology-based applications are the best practice. Past tests and projects have shown that TowerJ can achieve performance improvements of 200 to 500 percent for large-scale, computationally-intensive applications. Now that Tower is a licensee of the Java 2 platform, we can even more aggressively promote Java technology for our large enterprise clients." Originally founded in 1992 and focusing on Java technology-based performance solutions since 1996, Tower Technology Corporation has emerged as a leading provider of Java technology-based performance products and services. Tower was one of the first companies to recognize the role Java technology could play in the development and deployment of middle-tier enterprise servers. Tower was the first company to deliver technology that allowed applications written in the Java programming language to run on a variety of server class computer systems at C++like performance. Since then, Tower has been the leader in providing cost-effective solutions for high- performance server-side Java technology-based computing. Tower also provides professional services that help companies maximize performance and scalability of Java server applications in a cost- effective manner. |
