announced the immediate availability of Terracotta Universal
Messaging, a software platform for Big Data applications using
real-time data streaming to move massive amounts of data, at
extremely high speeds, across a wide range of devices and networks.

Previously, Terracotta Universal Messaging was only available as
a component of Software AG's webMethods. Now the unified messaging
solution is available as a standalone product from Terracotta that
customers can leverage for high performance messaging capabilities
within and beyond the enterprise, as well as to web and mobile
devices. The platform can also be integrated into existing
infrastructure, and will form the messaging component of
Terracotta's own In-Genius solution, a new native in-memory
platform for real-time insight and intelligent action on Big Data.
With Universal Messaging, In-Genius will offer high-speed data
transport to and from In-Genius components, providing fast access
to web and mobile devices, while also extending the cross-platform
support of Terracotta BigMemory. BigMemory 4.0, introduced in
March, allows for the storage of hundreds of terabytes of
high-value data in machine memory for blazingly fast,
predictable access.
"Today's consumers are increasingly demanding instant access to
applications and services, from anywhere and at any time, and we
expect that demand to grow exponentially," said Eddie McDaid, Managing Director of Universal
Messaging for Terracotta, Inc. "Big, fast data at your fingertips
requires seamless real-time data movement, no matter what type of
system or device you are using. Our Universal Messaging
solution resolves this critical big data challenge and it's
battle-tested, with a proven track record over the past decade
powering the most demanding applications across multiple
industries, including financial services, retail, gaming and
utilities."
Universal Messaging has been benchmarked by customers as the
fastest unified messaging solution available. Designed to
provide real-time data streaming at extremely low latencies across
a wide array of delivery channels, the all-in-one messaging
solution is a flexible, scalable, configurable and future-proof
solution for the entire range of devices and platforms. Offering
full enterprise messaging functionality, Universal Messaging is
easily managed and integrated with existing infrastructure,
lowering complexity, reducing costs and shortening time to
market. For enterprises that view timely data access as a
competitive advantage, Terracotta Universal Messaging is the only
comprehensive, scalable solution available in a single
