Xchanging Selects Attunity Connect for Mainframe System Integration
Wednesday January 22, 8:03 am ET
Leading Legacy Integration Technology Brings Mainframe Systems Together Creating
Flexible Commercial Services While Reducing Cost and Time to Market.
WAKEFIELD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 22, 2003-- Attunity Ltd. (NASDAQ: ATTU -
News), a leader in business process, application and data integration solutions
for the extended enterprise, today announced they have been awarded a contract
to deliver integration solutions to Xchanging Ins-Sure Services, the processing
bureau of Lloyds of London and the International Underwriting Association. The
bureau handles 8,000,000 electronic transactions a year, 250,000 claims with a
throughput of over 40 billion pounds, conforming with international regulatory
bodies.
Xchanging Ins-Sure Services' Claims Convergence program will deliver significant
cost savings and flexibility to the processing bureau harmonising two mainframe
systems. The standards-based solution is integrating two mainframe CICS based
claims processing systems with an Oracle 9i Application Server, delivering
business transactions to users through web interfaces.
Attunity Connect, Attunity's flagship product for enterprise integration, proved
to be the best solution, providing the required functionality and extremely
rapid time to market. Installed and operational within a day, Attunity Connect
delivered instant productivity. Several weeks into the project Ins-Sure called
in Attunity and within 10 hours had achieved a major break through showing Java
pages running CICS transactions. Over the next week the development surged
forwards allowing the Java developers to focus on their task without worrying
about the mainframe connectivity that had been significantly simplified.
"We are all impressed with the Attunity product," said Stuart Allan, Xchanging
Ins-Sure's Convergence Project Director. "We had experienced connectivity
problems which the Java and CICS development groups could not readily solve. As
soon as Attunity Connect was installed it enabled us to make rapid progress, and
the developers keep telling me how straightforward it is to use. Attunity's
technical support was also excellent with clear direction and fault finding."
Stuart says that the story has a long way to go yet: "Xchanging Ins-Sure
Services is responsible for a combined 400 million pounds contract for policy,
premium and claims administration and clearing at Lloyd's and the International
Underwriting Association. We have a single focus - turning internal business
process costs and fixed resources into flexible external commercial services -
Attunity Connect is now an important piece of that puzzle."
"We have seen tremendous market need for mainframe integration using new
industry standards such as Java Connector Architecture," said Avi Cohen, vice
president of EMEA at Attunity. "Our ability to support the high throughput
requirements coupled with our broad support for standards enables customers to
reduce the overall cost of integration and avoid vendor lock-in."
