Expanding JSR 116 Community in 2007

BEA WebLogic SIP Server has been the industry's leading converged J2EE-SIP-IMS application server based on the JSR 116 SIP Servlet API 1.0 standard. It has been successfully deployed in commercial telecom networks globally, both in SIP and IMS environments. Since it's initial launch in 2005, BEA WebLogic SIP Server has gained tremendous traction with ISVs porting their applications and services to the BEA SIP servlet container, as well as with key industry-leading network equipment providers (NEP).
Since then, the telecom industry has seen several entrants into the JSR 116-compliant SIP application server market, such as Oracle, IBM, Project Sailfin and Sun. This is a very encouraging development, as it will help to expand the overall market for SIP application servers, as well as increase the number of Java developers building SIP servlet applications. And with Project Sailfin, the community gains an open-source implementation of JSR 116. BEA welcomes the expanding community of JSR 116-compliant vendors.
In February 2007, Oracle announced their JSR 116-compliant, J2EE-SIP application server, called Oracle Communications and Mobility Server (OCMS), which was originally based on their Hotsip acquisition, but is now ported to Oracle Application Server.
In May 2007, Sun and Ericsson announced the contribution of Ericsson's JSR 116 implementation into the open-source J2EE project called Project Glassfish. Their jointly developed JSR 116 implementation will be called Project Sailfin, and Sun announced their plans to create a commercial JSR 116-compliant product based on Sailfin, to be called Sun Java System Communications Application Server.
At the same time, the 1st half of 2007 has seen some consolidation occurring in the JSR 116 market, resulting in the pooling of limited financial resources for smaller vendors. In January 2007, Avaya acquired Ubiquity Software (which in turn was acquired by private equity firm Silver Lake and TPG). In June 2007, Aepona acquired Appium, thereby gaining a JSR 116 container in the process.
As the JSR 116 community continues to grow, consolidate and mature, BEA will benefit from the enlarged market for J2EE-SIP application servers and increased SIP servlet developers. And BEA WebLogic SIP Server will continue to deliver the industry's most innovative, differentiated, and comprehensive J2EE-SIP-IMS application server, which operators, NEPs and ISVs continue to adopt worldwide.
