AVA DEVELOPERS EMBRACE XYTHOS' WEBFILE SERVER

WebDAV based technology simplifies content management integration

San Francisco, CA, June 29, 2004 - - Xythos Software, the leading developer of simple document and file management software, continues to gain momentum with the Java community as developers flock towards Java-based, open standards content management solutions. The Xythos WebDAV based platform provides a single web-enabled solution for unstructured data management which allows developers such as Blackboard, Intalio and SAS to simplify how documents and files are accessed, stored and shared within their own applications.

Xythos' WebFile Server's J2EE architecture simplifies the integration of document and file management which helps reduce development costs and improves the security of managing and sharing enterprise information. The Xythos WebFile Server represents a new class of Java-based middleware applications designed to leverage today's Internet standards such as WebDAV and XML to provide the flexibility and scalability required by enterprise software developers and their customers.

"In addition to reduced development and maintenance costs, Xythos technology provides increased scalability and reliability for our customers," said Ismael Ghalimi, Chief Technology Officer, Intalio. "The combination of WebDAV enabled content management with Intalio|n3 helps us deliver best of class process management solutions." Intalio, a leading provider of business process management systems, combined Xythos WebFile Server with its Intalio|n3 product line, which provides Intalio customers with improved stability and scalability through a single web-enabled application that manages all of their structured and unstructured data.

Xythos WebFile Server technology has also recently been integrated within the Blackboard Content System", a key component of the Blackboard Academic Suite from Blackboard Inc., the leading provider of enterprise software and services to the education industry. Xythos technology helps Blackboard serve the needs of colleges and universities in four key areas: Learning Content Management, e-Portfolio Management, Virtual Hard Drive Management and Library Digital Asset Management.

SAS, the market leader in providing a new generation of business intelligence software and services, integrated Xythos WebFile Server technology with the SASŪ Enterprise Business Intelligence Server offering, including the newly released SASŪ9. The integration of Xythos technology with SASŪ9 provides SAS customers with greater utility from their enterprise information by delivering data to decision makers that is filtered for their interests and security privileges via the Web.

"Xythos' robust implementation of the WebDAV standard and its J2EE architecture are providing developers with a content management system that supports collaborative development within a stable and scalable environment," said Ed Miller, CEO of Xythos Software. "The growing support from the developer community demonstrates the importance of technology which can be easily integrated within a standards compatible environment while improving the security of content being managed across public networks."

The complete family of Xythos WebFile product solutions will be demonstrated at JavaOne 2004 in San Francisco at booth #718 beginning Monday, June 28th.
