By implementing Kaazing's technology solution, and embracing open standards, Hedgehogs.net is able to provide the first and only hosted open market for both contributors and subscribers within the emerging boutique finance industry. Hedgehogs.net is committed to driving forward the "Software-as-a-Service" (SaaS) approach for financial application deployment, making "enterprise-class" infrastructure capabilities available to financial boutiques as a managed service.
"We chose Kaazing for their technical leadership, flexible architecture and commitment to the HTML5 standard," said Ken Yeadon, Chief Executive Officer of Hedgehogs.net. "This rapid integration demonstrated Kaazing's superior architecture, and that their technology truly delivers the lowest latency, highest performance and scalability compared with numerous other solutions. Furthermore, their dedication and attentiveness to our needs made them a clear choice when evaluating a technology for this new social market place."
Kaazing WebSocket Gateway, with its patent-pending WebSocket Acceleration(TM) technology, is the only solution in the marketplace today that facilitates full-duplex bi-directional web communication, making it possible to seamlessly and reliably extend any TCP-based messaging protocol to the Web without buying expensive new hardware. Kaazing WebSocket Gateway enables Hedgehogs.net to seamlessly navigate firewalls and proxies to make service deployment much easier and improve customer satisfaction.
"We are proud to be partnering with Hedgehogs.net as the Web communication solution for their social real-time market place," said Jonas Jacobi, co-Founder and CEO of Kaazing. "Our Kaazing WebSocket Gateway continues to deliver value for our customers. Our commitment to HTML5 standard ensures that our customers are perfectly positioned for the future, freedom from technology lock-in."
The use of Kaazing's WebSocket Gateway in the context of a professional social community platform will serve as a showcase for the capabilities of HTML5 WebSockets. The collaboration will enable both parties to exploit standards based real-time web communication and extend the boundaries of what is possible within the browser.
