Crosscheck Releases Federated SOA Testing Product
Nov 07, 2009 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) --
Crosscheck Networks, Inc., a developer of Web services testing, simulation and security offerings, announced immediate availability of SOAPSonar 5.0.
The company said its SOAPSonar offers support for WS-Trust, SAML 2.0, and WS-identity tokens ensuring a best-practices approach to federated identity management for strict authentication and authorization testing.
"Moving to an SOA doesn't mean that you've solved the issue of how to move files throughout your environment," said L. Frank Kenney, Research Director for Gartner. "Because the complexity and size of files and thus attachments is growing exponentially, it is very likely companies will find themselves quickly looking for mechanisms and technologies to address the exchange of large file attachments via Web services. This is an issue we expect to see grow as SOA adoption rates increase, and more and more companies embrace interoperable services."
"Tax-, home loan- and medical-related documents in various sizes and formats are being exchanged with greater frequency using Web services, particularly now with such initiatives as the HITECH Act promoting use of Electronic Health Records (EHRs). Until now, large size Web services attachment testing has been problematic due to hardware resource constraints," said Mamoon Yunus, CEO of Crosscheck Networks.
A core component of Crosscheck Networks' holistic product suite, SOAPSonar provides testing for SOAP-, XML- and REST-based services. The SOAPSonar framework is able to deploy and provides testing modes for functional, multi-client performance, compliance and security testing. Additionally, SOAPSonar provides message queue testing supporting IBM MQ, Tibco EMS, WLS JMS and Native JMS, ensuring business continuity with all trading partners - including those interacting via legacy components.
Crosscheck Networks' products can be deployed together or integrated with organizations' existing infrastructure. In addition to SOAPSonar, the enterprise-class suite comprises:
- SOAPSimulator - A service simulation product for developers and testers, SOAPSimulator enables Web services to reduce project expense and duration by allowing parallel development of the client and service components of a SOAP- or XML-based Web service.
- Forum Sentry - Secure integration across networks and business boundaries, the FIPS- and DoD-certified Sentry XML Gateway ensures preemptive risk mitigation of business transactions exposed via Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) by enabling the ability to develop and deploy SOAP- and XML-based Web services.
SOAPSonar 5.0 is available immediately to customers.
