IONA Releases MTOSI Toolkit

IONA Technologies at TeleManagement World on Monday announced the immediate availability of its IONA MTOSI Toolkit for Artix, the companys extensible Enterprise Service Bus.

The MTOSI Toolkit is available for free download from IONAs Web site.

The Multi-Technology Operations System Interface (MTOSI ) is a TeleManagement Forum (TMF) initiative that provides a standard, open interface for integration in telecom IT environments. IONAs MTOSI Toolkit for Artix provides a variety of developer resources that use the MTOSI standard to integrate OSS and BSS.

IONA has added resources to its MTOSI Toolkit for developers. In addition to an evaluation copy of Artix, the toolkit also comes with a set of MTOSI 1.0 WSDLs, reference implementations for both C++ and Java, and demonstration applications showing how MTOSI can be used to accomplish transport independent OSS integrations and facilitate the transport of XML data over CORBA.

The MTOSI Toolkit for Artix builds on IONAs long heritage of delivering the right combination of technology and expertise to solve the complex integration challenges facing the telecommunications industry, said Larry Alston, vice president of marketing and product management for IONA. The ability to leverage standards-based technology to deploy systems that are flexible and responsive to business change is a powerful value proposition. The MTOSI Toolkit can help show developers how this can be done.
