PHOENIX, April 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Axway
(Euronext: AXW.PA), a leader in B2B integration software, announces
it has once again been awarded certification from the Drummond
Group for interoperability with AS2 and AS4. This continues the
trend of the last 10+ years where Axway serves as the benchmark for
all connectivity vendors.
At the end of 2019, ENTSOG coordinated an AS4 Agreement Update
Proof of concept (POC) to test a new capability called "Automated
Certificate Exchange." Around 10 of the largest gas companies
participated in the POC, two of which were Axway customers. After a
lengthy POC process, the only companies that were able to
successfully complete the POC were the two Axway customers who
participated, Gassco and Equinor.
"We are proud to have worked with Axway on this challenging
Proof of Concept," said Jarle Rönnevik, Principal Analyst Energy
Logistics, OPI BIG BI at Equinor
ASA. "We consider it a significant accomplishment, that we
were able to successfully complete the testing. Axway was a great
partner throughout the process and we feel confident that Axway
will continue to drive us to the forefront of our industry's new
requirements."
"Axway continues to lead the way for enterprises requiring
best-in-class B2B connectivity that delivers value for their past,
present, and future ecosystem requirements," said Vince Padua, Chief Technology and Innovation
officer at Axway. "As a global leader in B2B integration and
ecosystem collaboration, this certification provides out-of-the-box
compliance, lowers the cost of ecosystem integration, and can be
run on-premise, cloud, or as a managed service with full
reversibility. As a forerunner in the modernization of B2B
connectivity, Axway continues to innovate to make enterprises more
flexible and agile in a rapidly changing B2B and ecosystem
landscape."
AS2 is one of the most popular B2B protocols, used heavily
around the globe in nearly every market vertical. It
continues to evolve to keep up with the latest security standards
and market demands.
AS4, one of the newest communication protocol standards, has
gained significant traction, since being adopted by the European
Network of Transmission System Operators for Gas Association
(ENTSOG). ENTSOG has taken the standard AS4 specifications and
extended them slightly to fit the needs of their specific market,
sometimes increasing the need for vendors to keep up with the pace
at which ENTSOG is innovating on AS4. Axway continues to show
leadership in the space.
