Kaazing Announces Kaazing WebSocket Gateway -- the Industry's First Enterprise - Grade Web Infrastructure Software Based on the HTML5 WebSocket Standard
Kaazing WebSocket Gateway Allows Enterprise Customers to quickly deliver highly scalable full-duplex bi-directional Web applications while significantly reducing operational costs
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., May 24 -- Kaazing, the leading innovator in HTML5 WebSocket technology, today announced a major update to the Kaazing WebSocket Gateway, the industry's first enterprise-grade web infrastructure software based on the HTML5 WebSocket standard. The Kaazing WebSocket Gateway enables companies to quickly deploy distributed and dynamic applications that are massively scalable and significantly reduce total cost of ownership, breaking the barriers of today's Web.

Consumers are shifting from web-centric PCs to multiple connected devices to obtain information and access dynamic, rich media, real-time applications. This trend is driving momentum and adoption of HTML5, the next major revision of the HTML (HyperText Markup Language) standard.
Kaazing WebSocket Gateway, with its patent-pending WebSocket Acceleration(TM) technology, is the only commercial solution 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.
"We have 4.4 million registered customers in more than 100 countries and needed a solution that could deliver on our requirements on scalability and reduced latency," said Stefan Norberg, Chief Architect of Unibet, one of the largest e-gaming operators in Europe. "We chose Kaazing for its support for open-standards such as HTML5 and AMQP, and for its flexible architecture which enabled us to meet our business structure, not change the business to fit the technology. The result is reduction in our data center infrastructure, as well as much lower latency which ensures improved customer experience."
Unlike older, non-standard technologies that rely on "polling" or "long-polling," and utilize complex, inefficient techniques that result in higher latency and sky-rocketing server infrastructure costs, Kaazing delivers ultra-high application performance while lowering operational cost. Kaazing WebSocket Gateway reduces unnecessary network traffic by up to a thousand times, and capable of supporting over one million concurrent users per gateway. By using KaazingWebSocket Gateway, companies can support globally distributed user population with high availability, without material service degradation.
"Kaazing WebSocket Gateway is the first and only WebSocket infrastructure solution that enables large and small businesses to harness the power of HTML5 for dynamic multiplatform application deployment," said Jonas Jacobi, CEO of Kaazing. "By delivering such game-changing technology, we help our customers realize complete communication and architecture freedom."
Kaazing WebSocket Gateway Product Features:
-- Ultra-high performance, full duplex bi-directional communication
between browser and back-end real-time data sources and messaging
servers
-- Native support for HTML5 WebSocket compliant browsers, as well as
emulated support for older versions of browsers including IE6, without
requiring any plug-ins
-- Support for all major client technology platforms, including:
JavaScript, Adobe Flash/Flex, Java Desktop, JavaFX, Java Applet,
Microsoft Silverlight, and Microsoft .Net framework
-- Support for a variety of protocols, including, but not limited to:
STOMP, AMQP, and XMPP
-- Awareness and support for communication through proxy servers
-- Support for full TCP-based binary and text protocol
-- Dynamic load balancing with fine-grained control
-- Enterprise grade reliability and resiliency through advanced high
availability and disaster recovery features
-- Enhanced security and single sign-on capabilities, including built-in
protocol awareness and credential injection; integration with JAAS,
supporting pluggable authentication modules.
Kaazing WebSocket Gateway will be available for download starting May 28. For more information on the HTML5 WebSocket standard and Kaazing's full product offerings, visit http://www.kaazing.com.
