IONA Technologies
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
IONA Technologies, NASDAQ: IONA, was founded in 1991 in Dublin, Ireland. The company has a history of providing distributed, standards-based software solutions to IT organizations that have complex, heterogeneous computing environments and challenging integration problems. Since its founding, the company has established a proven record of industry leadership and continuous product improvement.
IONA has built its integration products around two open industry standards, initially CORBA and more recently Web services, and a unifying approach to designing and implementing large-scale systems referred to as service-oriented architecture, or SOA. These guiding principles can be seen in the Orbix and Artix ESB product families, participation in open source projects in the ObjectWeb Consortium and Apache Software Foundation and the leadership role in the Eclipse Foundation SOA Tooling Platform Project.
