CeBIT 2006: Gaining True Added Value fromExisting Software SolutionsInterSystems’ Application Technology Provides Competitive Edge forEnd Users, Software Houses and Implementation Partners

Hanover, March, 09 2006 – At CeBIT 2006 (hall 3, booth C20),

InterSystems, leading provider of application technology, demonstrates

under the slogan „We make applications more successful“ how end users,

software houses and implementation partners will benefit from their

investments in existing software solutions. InterSystems focuses at CeBIT

on creating added value by extending existing solutions in a multi-staged

approach. How to generate added value specifically in the healthcare

industry will be demonstrated at a second InterSystems booth in the

eHealth Area in hall 9, booth C52/1, stand 16. Here the focus is on

process integration in hospitals, integrated care and linking of the IT of

hospitals, pharmacies and medical practices.

As the leading „embedded database“, InterSystems post-relational database

Caché today serves as the technological foundation of a broad variety of

industry applications. Migrating to Caché turns out beneficial for end users

and software houses alike: applications become platform-independent with

Caché acting as a „black box“ in the background, thus ensuring the seamless

operation in a variety of system architectures, operating system

environments and framework paradigms. Caché eliminates performance

bottlenecks, ensures the efficient use of system resources, and reduces

administration overhead. In addition, due to its „Unified Data Architecture“,

Caché understands the models existing applications are based on – from the

relational Data Description Language (DDL), and various object models to

state-of-the-art XML – thus enabling a seamless and easy migration to new

architectures.

The Ensemble universal integration platform on the other hand provides a

seamless integration with the existing enterprise applications. Due to its

integrated development environment for business processes and composite



applications, business processes across applications may be mapped easily,

and users are thus able to leverage new applications components in a fast

and efficient way. As Ensemble leverages the business logic of existing

applications instead of re-implementing it, errors are eliminated and projects

will be completed in shorter time. In addition by using the universal

integration approach the applied integration logic may by reused in different

contexts for a variety of business processes, and investments will deliver

two or three times the original ROI.

Using Ensemble, the integration does not have to take place at the end user,

as this is usually the case. InterSystems offers software houses the core

components of Ensemble as „embedded integration“ which can be

integrated in their solutions. Thus industry-specific integration tasks may be

implemented in out-of-the-box solutions in advance. Using embedded

Ensemble, developers are able to develop business processes across

applications in short time, and deploy them as part of their applications. A

set of more than 165 adapters ensures that the business processes can be

linked with almost every popular application, technology, and framework at

the client site without requiring a lot of programming.

In the eHealth Area in hall 9, InterSystems presents innovative integration

solutions for the healthcare industry. A special highlight is the online access

to a running integration solution for the scoring of complex intensive care at

Deutsches Herzzentrum in Berlin, Germany. For this demonstration, a

special filter algorithm has been developed guaranteeing completely

anonymous patient data.

Also at the main booth in hall 3, examples of real life applications and

actual project reports are presented. Here application and implementation

partners including Cutex, Emprise Process Management, Lib-IT, and

Synerva show how application technology of InterSystems generates

measurable added value in organizations. „Together with our partners we

will demonstrate how applications will be become more successful by using



the appropriate technology“, states Jörg Klingler, Managing Director for

Central and Eastern Europe at InterSystems. „Today end users can not

afford to simply write off existing software investments. Using Caché and

Ensemble we provide our partners with the mission-critical tools to generate

added value from existing solutions in an efficient and cost-effective way.“
