Latest integration and messaging offerings bolster connectivity,
usability, and IoT capabilities for enhanced developer productivity
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
RED HAT SUMMIT 2015 - Red Hat, Inc. (NYSE: RHT), the world's
leading provider of open source solutions, announced the release of Red
Hat JBoss Fuse 6.2 and Red Hat JBoss A-MQ 6.2, introducing new
capabilities to help developers simplify their enterprise application
and messaging initiatives. The latest versions of these offerings are
designed to enhance developer productivity along three critical planes:
connectivity, usability, and the Internet of Things (IoT).
JBoss Fuse is a lightweight, flexible, integration platform that is
based on Apache
Camel, an implementation of many of the most commonly used enterprise
integration patterns (EIP). JBoss A-MQ is a lightweight, high
performance messaging platform based on Apache
ActiveMQ. Its light weight and support of standards such as MQTT
and AMQP
make it possible for organizations to more reliably connect systems and
devices across the Internet and enable the integrated Internet-of-Things.
Connectivity
The allure of greater agility, ease of procurement, and lower cost are
contributing to an explosion of new Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) assets
such as business and social applications, and the hybrid cloud - where
workloads span both private and public clouds - is now a reality for
many organizations. JBoss Fuse 6.2 and JBoss A-MQ 6.2 deliver the
advanced connectivity capabilities needed in these complex environments,
offering more than 150 out-of-the box connectors and the ability to
connect SaaS applications like Salesforce, Box, DropBox, and Google
Drive with on-premise applications. The latest version also provides
foundational capabilities for creating RESTful APIs as well as
connecting to supplier, partner, or customer APIs. The expanded
connectivity and API foundation enables customers to easily create
connected solutions for modern business.
Usability
To enable greater developer collaboration and faster time-to-market,
JBoss Fuse 6.2 and JBoss A-MQ 6.2 feature enhanced tooling and usability
capabilities. With intuitive tooling developers can quickly create
Enterprise Integration Pattern (EIP)-based services, connect
applications and APIs, and transform data using the included
transformers and a graphical mapper available as a technical preview.
Now enterprises can better focus on becoming more competitive through
innovation and experimentation.
Internet of Things
According
to an April 2015 Red Hat survey, 70 percent of survey respondents
plan to incorporate IoT projects into their business over the next five
years, presenting significant opportunities to create more innovative
solutions. For forward-thinking businesses anticipating the coming wave
of integration needs, lightweight, standards-based technologies offer
the ability to more reliably connect systems and devices across the
Internet. JBoss Fuse and JBoss A-MQ deliver the lightweight integration
and messaging capabilities required for evolving IoT solutions,
including support for protocols such as MQTT, STOMP, and AMQP 1.0, and
support for RESTful APIs. These capabilities are complemented by other
Red Hat capabilities to help customers more rapidly and securely
transform, process, and act on IoT data when and where needed.
Companies like AMD,
American Product Distributors, Avianca, Color Line, and Telegraph Media
Group have deployed JBoss Fuse to simplify their integration
initiatives and become more competitive and innovative.
The latest releases of JBoss Fuse and JBoss A-MQ strengthen and serve as
the foundation for Red
Hat's private integration Platform-as-a-Service (iPaaS), part of Red
Hat's OpenShift-based
JBoss xPaaS Services offering.
