IFS Applications 7 enables enterprise agility so that organizations can take advantage of rapidly changing international market conditions. The new release gives enterprises a service-oriented architecture (SOA) with reusable business components designed for improved user productivity, faster implementation, lower total cost of ownership (TCO) and easier upgrades. Unlike traditional monolithic enterprise software, IFS Applications 7 meets today’s business needs. “This new release, maybe more than any other, is focused on functionality for vertical industries—including aerospace & defense, automotive, high-tech, industrial manufacturing, and process industries. One of our major focuses has been to produce applications that are not only rich in business functionality but also have user interfaces that enhance employee productivity. By porting IFS Applications 7 onto HP Integrity systems, we are helping customers drive greater return on IT assets,” said Mark Rabjohns, President for IFS Asia Pacific. “All in all, with our component-based design and the innovative hardware from HP, our customers are well prepared to deal with future business, technology and security demands of a changing environment.” Organizations across the world have realized that in a rapidly changing environment, customer-orientation needs and responsiveness to dynamic business requirements are critical. IFS Applications 7 leverages the full power of the HP Integrity server line via the service-oriented architecture that support open standards. The result is access to changes in underlying sources, targets and integration processes that can be quickly understood and accurately reflected in business applications. “IFS Applications 7 on HP Integrity servers allows customers to meet the demands of business-critical integration in real time and maintain application flexibility and 24x7 availability,” said Michelle Weiss, vice president of marketing, Business Critical Systems, HP. “HP-UX with HP Serviceguard also minimizes unplanned downtime and boosts operational efficiencies to help customers cut costs.”
