president and CEO, webMethods, Inc. "His influence has already been
felt in the successful launch of Fabric 6.5 and he is playing an
even larger role in the development of our next major platform

helping to set our overall corporate and technology direction. He's
also been charged with acting as a strong advocate on behalf of our
customers." Since joining webMethods in 1999, Breissinger has held
progressive responsibilities for managing webMethods' standards
initiatives, defining product strategy, and establishing technical
architecture. As the company's chief architect, Breissinger was
charged with setting the technology vision for the company's
products and ensuring that this vision is consistently rendered as
industry-leading offerings. "webMethods has played a significant
role in the emergence of Web services and service-oriented
architecture," said Breissinger. "As such, it's a distinct honor to
be named the company's CTO. By bringing together best-in- class
technologies for managing business processes within a comprehensive
service-oriented architecture, we've helped enterprises enhance IT
efficiency while realizing greater predictability, visibility and
performance within their core business operations. I look forward
to continuing these efforts as we embrace new technologies and
standards that further reinforce the significant role that IT can
play in business performance." Prior to webMethods, Breissinger
