JackBe, the leading provider of enterprise mashup software, today announced the general availability of the next generation of its award-winning enterprise mashup platform, Presto 2.5. Mashups can now be created for use with all common applications, development toolsets, and seamlessly connected to many popular enterprise identity management systems. The new offerings within Presto 2.5 allow enterprises to easily create and integrate mashups within their IT infrastructure while maintaining a secure environment.

Presto 2.5 includes over 60 features and enhancements specifically for the mashup developers community. The Presto Connectors for VBA and C# allow any Microsoft .NET developer to integrate mashups into Microsoft Excel or Visual Basic applications. The Presto Connector for ActionScript provides similar mashup integration options for Adobe Flash, Adobe Flex and Adobe Air developers. Presto 2.5 also features integrated security options that support all enterprise identity and access management systems. These solutions compliment previously-announced Presto Connectors for Oracle, HP, and Sun, proving the broadest set of enterprise mashup development choices in the industry.

“The enterprise technology landscape is demanding. Enterprise-grade mashup solutions must provide a variety of options for both business and IT mashup makers. All of these options must meet security and governance compliance needs at every level of mashup creation and consumption. Presto enhances and expands the reach of mashups in the enterprise while ensuring IT alignment and acceptance,” said John Crupi, CTO of JackBe.

Awarded Enterprise Mashup Platform of the Year in 2008 by InfoWorld, JackBe’s Presto enables business and technology users to create mashups easily and safely. JackBe is offering a 30-day trial-download of Presto 2.5, along with demos and videos of enterprise mashups in action, at www.jackbe.com.
