Pervasive Powers Real-Time, OAGIS-Compliant Integration for
Industry-Leading Advertising E-Commerce Exchange ASItransact
advances ASP business model using Pervasive Business Integrator(TM)
for real-time XML integration of trading partners AUSTIN, Texas,
May 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Pervasive Software(R) Inc. , a
global value leader in data infrastructure software, today
announced that ASItransact, a collaborative advertising industry
e-commerce exchange, is successfully using Pervasive Business
Integrator(TM) to assimilate distributors and suppliers into its
online order management system via XML, enabling greater
flexibility to conduct business in compliance with OAGIS (The Open
Applications Group Integration Specification), a widely accepted
supply-chain standard for passing data in and out of applications
in an XML format. ASItransact.com is an electronic order entry and
management system that streamlines order processing for more than
3,000 suppliers in the promotional products industry. "Customers
rely on ASItransact.com to make processing orders and serving
clients easier and quicker so they can focus on selling," said Dale
Denham, senior vice president of ASItransact, Trevose, Pa.
"Pervasive has become a critical component of our architecture,
advancing our strategy to a more agile and competitive ASP business
model. Pervasive offers customers reliable, easy interaction with
the most widely used online order management system for the $16
billion dollar advertising specialty industry. The Pervasive
design-time tools provide a more flexible product and far richer
programming interface than the other vendors we evaluated."
ASItransact needed an integration solution that would allow them to
make global changes in their application data model without having
to change transformations hard-coded in Java. ASItransact employs
Pervasive to quickly and reliably translate data, in nearly every
format, between each trading partner and into the OAGIS compliant,
XML-based specifications used by ASItransact.com. The automated
B2Bi (business to business integration) project, which took two
developers only two weeks to map and deploy, complements
ASItransact's straight-through processing capabilities in order to
efficiently extract, transform and load immense volumes of
real-time partner data, all while speeding up turn-around times and
reducing document errors. "Application service providers in
particular require much more flexible and cost-effective solutions
to overcome the complexity of B2Bi involving trading partners
outside their firewall," said Mike Hoskins, vice president and
general manager, Integration Products Division, Pervasive Software.
"Pervasive Business Integrator provides a comprehensive solution
that allows ASPs like ASItransact to effectively realize their B2B
e-commerce strategies by delivering industry-leading XML
integration services such as real-time data exchange and
straight-through processing." Pervasive's integration products
feature a comprehensive set of easy-to- use visual design tools to
rapidly build and test data integration processes, regardless of
size and complexity, across hundreds of data formats and
applications within and outside of the enterprise. Offering an open
XML-based metadata layer that obviates dependency on proprietary
design environments and a deployment platform that can easily grow
and scale for projects of all sizes across virtually any platform,
the Pervasive architecture allows developers to create or modify
executable integration logic within any XML development
environment. About ASItransact ASItransact.com is a division of
