Electronic Financial Services Provider to Deploy In-Memory Platform to Expand Market Presence, Minimize Costs With Unified Architecture


PALO ALTO, CA--(Marketwire - Apr 25, 2011) - TIBCO Software Inc. (NASDAQ: TIBX) today announced that VERO™, provider of high-performance automated financial services to banks, credit unions and retail locations, will employ TIBCO's in-memory platform to help deliver real-time processing speeds, and ensure data integrity and consistency of transactions in the most demanding environments.

Transaction processing in banking has traditionally been dominated by a three-tiered or legacy architecture that is inflexible and costly to scale. This diverse collection of legacy technologies, including mainframes, application servers, databases, and transactions processors often results in complex integrations and disjointed systems.

VERO will be making extensive use of TIBCO ActiveSpaces® Transactions to manage the high performance and "always-on" availability requirements that are expected from its automated financial services solution. Millions of members and customers will benefit from the convenience of executing common financial transactions such as making deposits, cashing checks, or accessing accounts in convenient locations anywhere, anytime of the day.

TIBCO ActiveSpaces Transactions provides a fully distributed, in-memory transaction management mechanism that has been benchmarked to run more than 2,000 transactions per second for credit card acquiring applications in a high-availability environment running on commodity hardware.
