XCache Technologies XCache Technologies Releases the XCompress 1400 Compression options expand with release of first hardware based product from XCache Technologies BELLINGHAM, Wash. – October 16, 2002 – XCache Technologies, a leading innovator of Internet acceleration and manageability solutions, today announced the availability of the XCompress 1400 - the only dedicated compression appliance available on the market today. The XCompress 1400 is designed to bring compression to any HTTP based platform quickly and at low cost. The XCompress 1400 can be used by ISPs, web hosts, corporate data centers, branch offices, e-commerce applications, CRM applications, human resources applications, web email applications, and applications dependent on web services. Decompression is handled by the browser, and nearly every browser has standard decompression functionality built in, so no client side plug-ins or equipment is required and deployment is transparent. The XCompress 1400 expands upon XCache Technologies’ Smart Compression Technology, which was previously deployed in XCompress for IIS, the company’s hottest selling software product. Smart Compression Technology ensures that only the right content is compressed for the right browser to maximize compression without fear of compromising application integrity. "It's no mystery that compressing a file is pretty easy and lots of products claim to do it," said Wayne Berry, CEO of XCache Technologies. "The hard part is knowing when to apply compression - that’s where our Smart Compression Technology comes in." As a 1U high rack mountable hardware based solution – the XCompress 1400 is completely platform independent, so Apache, Websphere, Tomcat, WebLogic, IIS, and other off-brand web server users can all use the product to equal benefit. Pricing is set at $4000 USD per unit and evaluation machines are available. About XCache Technologies XCache Technologies is a leading provider of Internet acceleration and manageability solutions. The company's software products – XCompress™, XCache™, XTune™ and XBuilder™ – impart Internet-dependant businesses with increased web site performance, scalability and maintainability for the benefit of improved end user experiences. The company’s first hardware product - the XCompress 1400™ does no caching and is complementary to the company's suite of software products. The move to hardware and platform independence marks an important milestone in the life of the company, and the XCompress 1400 adds yet another link in the growing line of high performance products from XCache Technologies. ### CONTACT: Wayne Berry XCache Technologies Phone: 360.756.1445 x101 Email: [email protected] |
