JNBridge Delivers Java and Microsoft .NET Integration for the Cloud with Launch of JNBridgePro 6.0

JNBridgePro 6.0 addresses interoperability between major cloud platforms, including Amazon Web Services and Windows Azure

Boulder, Colorado, May 25, 2011

JNBridge, (www.jnbridge.com), the award-winning provider of interoperability tools that connect the Java and .NET Frameworks, announced today the release of JNBridgePro 6.0, which enables developers to access both .NET-based and Java-based cloud services and APIs from ground or cloud-based clients written in the other platform, and to develop cloud-based services and APIs that incorporate both Java and .NET-based components.

“As enterprise development teams start including cloud technologies in their applications, incompatible cloud platforms and APIs will be a huge road block,” said Michael Cote, analyst at RedMonk. “We’re already seeing a clamoring for tools and services that integrate this spaghetti bowl of end-points, and they’re only going to become more important to realizing the benefits of cloud development.”

JNBridgePro connects Java and .NET Framework-based components and applications together with simple-to-use Visual Studio and Eclipse plug-ins that remove the complexities of cross-platform interoperability. JNBridgePro 6.0 extends this interoperability to the cloud, allowing developers to build and distribute integrated applications anywhere, including:

• Intra-cloud, where both platforms reside in the same cloud, either in the same or in different instances
• Inter-cloud, where the instances belong to different clouds
• Ground-to-cloud and cloud-to-ground, where the interoperability is between a cloud instance and an application running on the ground.

“JNBridge’s vision of cloud interoperability is any object or API, on any platform, in any language, anywhere,” said Wayne Citrin, CTO of JNBridge. “JNBridgePro 6.0 will allow enterprises to build applications that access any API, or build rich APIs that are accessible to the other side, no matter where they reside, and whether or not they are services enabled.”

Along with extending all the high-performance interoperability capabilities of JNBridgePro to the cloud, JNBridge has both simplified and extended the licensing options. Now a single edition, JNBridgePro 6.0 includes all the functions of the previous standard (JNBridgePro SE) and enterprise (JNBridgePro EE) editions. JNBridgePro 6.0 now offers an annual licensing option, in addition to perpetual, and supports licensing of virtual machines and cloud instances.
