Telepo Collaborates With Sun Microsystems on Mobile Unified Communications


STOCKHOLM, February 12 /PRNewswire/ --     Telepo has today announced that it is collaborating with Sun Microsystems
to address the increasing need for mobile unified communication solutions
among large enterprises and operators. Telepo's award-winning communication
software will run on Sun hardware and application server - with focus on two
open-source projects - GlassFish(TM) and Sailfin.

The collaboration between the two companies include broad technology
cooperation, software development and testing together with Sun's solution
architects of Project Sailfin, the open source-based communication software.

"Telepo is an innovative and award-winning application vendor for mobile 
business communication, which has a strong fit with Sun initiatives around 
Project Sailfin, for the next generation enterprise requirements," said Paul 
Hinz, Director of Application Platform, Sun Microsystems.

"Sun has an undisputed leadership in the operator segment world-wide with
its infrastructure and application server technology," said Lars-Michaël 
Paqvalén, CEO of Telepo. "We will now be able to further increase the
scalability and performance of the Telepo Business Communication Solution in
order to address large enterprises and operators."

Telepo will showcase its solutions together with Sun at the GSM Mobile
World Congress in Barcelona (booth 2C12) and further on at JavaOne, May 6-9
in San Francisco, United States.

Telepo's software solutions will run on Sun's hardware and Sun Java(TM)
Communications Application Server (SJSCAS). SJSCAS is a leading open source
(Project Sailfin) service convergence platform. With telco-grade capabilities
such as scalability and multi-platform support, this SIP application server
forms the core of a Service Delivery Platform and facilitates deployment of
multimedia communications services.

SJSCAS is powered by GlassFish, the leading open source Java EE
application server that boasts world class performance. For Telepo this
relationship enables clustering support for large scale telecom graded
systems with high availability and scalability. Telepo will not have to
maintain the SIP server itself, which leads to faster time to market of new
services and applications.
