June 2009 - Data Interchange is in the first round of software vendors to complete OFTP2 Interoperability testing. The OFTP2 Interoperability tests, designed by ODETTE, aim to ensure flawless communication between the various OFTP2 software packages available on the market. For companies wishing to implement OFTP2 this new service means that they can rely on the proven interoperability of software which has been tested against ODETTE specifications, making the job of software selection that much easier.
Data Interchange is one of the core developers that participated in the development of the OFTP2 specification, has proven the interoperability of their OFTP2 products and has successfully completed the tests. Other software vendors may offer OFTP2 software; however, products have not been tested and ODETTE cannot make any statement about their interoperability and compliance with the specification RFC5024.
Data Interchange's solutions serve thousands of companies globally within such industries as automotive, financial services, healthcare, pharmaceutical, consumer products and government. Data Interchange's certified solutions include:
- EPIC – A high throughput, resilient B2B platform based upon a load-balancing / resilient architecture
- ODEX Enterprise – A scalable gateway solution allowing consolidation of different connection methods
- OFTP2 Express – An affordable entry-level solution allowing quick and easy adoption of OFTP2
"As one of the authors of OFTP2 specification, Data Interchange is at the forefront of standards development," said Ewan Friend, Managing Director, Data Interchange. "ODETTE's certification demonstrates our continued investment in one of the most widely-adopted messaging standards across the globe and highlights our ongoing commitment to industry standards."
