Vertel’s CORBA-Based Solution Chosen for Size, Reliability
Vertel® Corp. (Nasdaq:VRTL – news), a leading provider of mediation software for telecommunications networks, has announced that Mannesmann VDO AG has purchased e*ORB core technology for the purpose of developing a prototype in its vehicle telecommunications architecture.
“We selected e*ORB because its small footprint and telecom-grade reliability make it an ideal solution for telecommunications architecture within motor vehicles where space and performance are a significant issue,” said Chris Wild, software chief architect for the TLA program of Mannesmann VDO AG.
To date, the VDO sale represents Vertel’s fifth purchase agreement for e*ORB core technology announced during the second half of 2000. e*ORB combines the interoperability of the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) with the performance, reliability and scalability required to develop and deploy integrated voice/data/video services over optical, IP and wireless networks.
“We are very pleased that VDO is using e*ORB for developing prototypes,” said Cyrus D. Irani, president and chief executive officer of Vertel. “We believe that through the prototyping process, VDO will come to appreciate the reliability that e*ORB can deliver in such a small footprint. We look forward to a long-term successful relationship with VDO.”
