Back in December of the past year, Intervoice and BEA Systems (News - Alert) announced collaboration efforts to facilitate the adoption of IMS communication services like voiceSMS, voicemail, and videomail in a bid to move closer towards IMS.

 

Now, Intervoice (News - Alert) is announcing the completed integration Media Exchange with BEA Systems converged EE-SIP-IMS application server, WebLogic SIP Server for a platform for next generation application and service creating.

 

With the integration, the hopes are to break way into the mobile-media subscriber services market as well as call center applications that work with traditional environments as well.

 

The two converged solutions are designed to specifically handle next generation and IMS services as well as providing SIP-based session control capabilities to next-generation, converged, IP communication services.

 

According to a news release, "The underlying technology is a runtime- execution engine based on State Chart Extensible Markup Language (SCXML), and a service-creation development environment based on the Eclipse framework."

 

This will aid in more extensible, rapid application development and service creation.

 

"The successful integration of BEA WebLogic SIP Server with Intervoice Media Exchange adds to the growing ecosystem of innovative IMS services available to the BEA WebLogic Communications Platform product family. BEA and Intervoice are delivering a joint solution which is designed to enable operators to create new converged multimedia services very rapidly and cost effectively." Mike McHugh, vice president and general manager, BEA WebLogic Communication Platform, BEA Systems commented in a statement to the press.

 

Customer trials and multi-partner integrations are already planned.
