Xcalia DAS also leverages the standards specified by the OASIS and Open SOA organizations (i.e. SDO and DAS). XIC allows the customers to manage their systems towards interoperability in a way that allows them to optimize the information resources and applications they already have, and meanwhile, migrate data and applications at their own pace. iPhone CPU with Native Java Support The ARM-based CPU has found special features for accelerating Java code inside the iPhone. Now the chip is likely to be the Samsung-made S3C6400 and will support the Jazelle engine. The Jazelle engine reduces the memory use to a fraction needed for execution of the softwares and it uses a virtual engine that juggles mul- tiple Java programs at once without a major drop in performance. Now the iPhones will easily load softwares to chat and games without requiring more expensive hardware. Sun/Intel Partnership Targets Telcos The Sun/Intel alliances are in a potentially lucrative vertical market. The two companies recently announced the availability of Sun’ Solaris operating system on Intel- based telecommunications rack and blade servers. Last month, Sun announced a new line of blade servers available with choice of AMD, Intel or Sun’s own Sparc processors. The systems are carrier grade rack mount servers that are certified Network Equipment-Building System (NEBS) Level 3 and European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) compliant, and blades that adhere to the Advanced Telecom Computing Architecture (ATCA), spec for next-generation telecommunications equipment.
