PUNE: Iopsis Software, a web services and software solutions provider has
introduced a totally new approach to web service tools in its Web Services
Component Suite, iNsight 2.0.
Based on its Web Services Studio, iNsight 1.0, this version provides a
component-based framework that provides packaged functionality for creation,
assembly, deployment and publication of dynamic, interactive, enterprise web
services.
The components can be dropped into existing applications and wired together in
an environment of the user's choice using a visual choreography component.
iNsight 2.0 is best used for empowering existing applications to support
dynamic, interactive web services. iNsight 2.0 is designed to provide complete
web service support to existing applications. These components (available in
both .NET and J2EE) require no knowledge of web service standards and are
configured to 'drop and go'.
Iopsis Software has also launched iNsight 1.5, an enhanced version of the
iNsight Web Services studio, which will be available free. Iopsis Software has
also developed an Application Broker; W2Net that uses an innovative approach to
allow business users to bring Windows based assets into a collaborative world.
W2Net enables business users to seamlessly extract and integrate
functionality from legacy applications with Windows or Console clients. The
extracted functionality is made available in the form of reusable and
interoperable components that can be integrated, exposed as XML web services or
used as fulfillment components for interactive enterprise web services.
iNsight 2.0 and W2Net will be licensed to enterprises, independent software
vendors, system integrators and Value-Added Resellers.
"Some of our most significant web service implementations are now in
production and being used by our customers with success. However, we believe
that unless users are familiar and comfortable with Web Services development
environments, acceptance will be slow. By making iNsight 1.5 available free, we
expect to create greater awareness and comfort for Web Services, in general.
"iNsight 1.5 is built on the Forte for Java IDE, which features a modular
architecture based on the popular standards-based NetBeans open source
platform."
