Cooper City, FL — January 13, 2009 — Linxter, Inc., provider of in-the-cloud message-oriented middleware, today announces its version 1.5 release. An information broker that enables and governs secure, reliable message-based data exchange between any .NET applications or services, Linxter dramatically reduces the amount of time and expertise developers need to connect distributed applications and integrate distributed systems.
With security built in at several layers, developers can rest assured that Linxter is not just another platform secured by a sprinkling of magic crypto fairy dust. All message transactions are authenticated, authorized, and encrypted. Linxter goes beyond the transport channel to encrypt the messages themselves with X.509 certificates. This provides for end-to-end security, regardless of the number of intermediaries involved in transferring the message and regardless of whether or not the transport is secure.
In addition to automatic message encryption with X.509 certificates, Linxter v1.5 offers developers more advanced features: the ability for program instances to use both TCP and HTTP as the transport protocol, support for message prioritization within queues, optional secondary local API queue for outgoing messages, and the ability to permanently disable a program instance remotely.
To date, employing Linxter to eliminate communication plumbing headaches has been focused on the .NET developer community. However, CEO Jason Milgram remarks, “We are extremely excited for the launch of version 1.5, as it opens the door to port our SDK to Java, which will extend the benefits of Linxter to Linux, Mac, and Google’s Android developer communities, and truly make Linxter a ubiquitous messaging solution.”
Distributed applications that are built with Linxter are firewall friendly and enabled for secure, reliable, well-governed, asynchronous data exchange. A cloud messaging platform, Linxter eliminates common technical barriers such as message polling, transactional queues, dynamic endpoint reconfiguration, self-updating address books, authentication and authorization, encryption, internet connection retries, non-repudiation, and file chunking. The result is an easy-to-use framework that allows developers to focus on the core value of connected applications instead of the communication plumbing needed to connect them.
