BEA Systems Delivers Enhanced IMS Service Infrastructure Software for Accelerating Next-Generation Communication Services

Demonstrating continued leadership in next-generation communications infrastructure software, BEA Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: BEAS), today announced the general availability of BEA WebLogic SIP Server(TM) 2.2.

As the Java EE-SIP application server component of the BEA WebLogic Communications Platform(TM) product family, this latest version of BEA WebLogic SIP Server is designed to deliver enhanced support for IMS, making it the telecom industry's first and only carrier-grade, converged application server platform with native support for IMS, Java EE, Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), and Event Driven Architecture (EDA), in a single application container.

"Network operators are looking to quickly implement a flexible, dynamic and agile IMS services layer architecture in order to accelerate the delivery of next-generation services," said Brian Partridge, senior analyst with The Yankee Group. "A converged Java EE-SIP container, like that found in BEA WebLogic SIP Server is a cost-effective and efficient approach. By leveraging the enhanced IMS, SOA and EDA support network operators can better respond to changing competitive market forces."

BEA WebLogic SIP Server 2.2 Provides Support for Key IMS Standards and SIP-based Event Notification

BEA WebLogic SIP Server 2.2 is designed to provide enhanced support for IMS. The product supports the key IMS application server standard interfaces specified by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). These standards include the SIP-based IMS Service Control (ISC) interface, and the Diameter-based Sh reference point that can help allow network operators seamlessly integrate BEA WebLogic SIP Server with their IMS core networks. BEA WebLogic SIP Server is also designed to provide a simplified and cost-effective foundation for an IMS services layer architecture, with support for multiple application protocols and interfaces, such as SIP, HTTP, Java EE, and Web Services. This foundation can help allow for more rapid service creation and delivery, while helping keep the cost of deploying these new services down.

Additionally, BEA WebLogic SIP Server 2.2 supports key Internet standards and protocols that can help enable telecom network operators to implement a SIP- and XML-based event-driven application architecture (EDA) at the IMS services layer. These new technologies include SIP-specific Event Notification and XML Configuration Access Protocol (XCAP), both of which are in the process of being specified and standardized by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). Network operators deploying IMS networks can leverage a SIP-based event notification framework, and an XML-based data configuration platform designed to help implement new IMS service enablers much more rapidly and cost effectively.

All of these enhanced capabilities in BEA WebLogic SIP Server 2.2 are designed to offer telecom network operators simplicity and choice at the services layer of their next-generation network architectures. Instead of requiring operators to purchase, deploy and manage multiple application containers to build out services that require support for multiple application protocols, BEA WebLogic SIP Server 2.2 is designed to deliver a single application container platform that can support all of these industry-standard technologies. Simplicity can mean lower operational costs; choice means new service and revenue opportunities can be created using the variety of complementary technologies implemented.

"BEA WebLogic SIP Server 2.2 is designed to firmly position BEA as the leading converged Java EE-SIP-IMS application platform provider," said Mike McHugh, vice president and general manager, BEA WebLogic Communications Platform, BEA Systems. "We fully support the key 3GPP standards for IMS application servers in BEA WebLogic SIP Server 2.2. We are continuing to provide network operators with communication services infrastructure designed to deliver new sources of revenue, while also helping to protect investment by focusing on the implementation of widely adopted industry standards at the IMS services layer. No other vendor in the telecom or IT industries today offers such an integrated and complete solution."
