BEA Systems has acquired Flashline, a repository provider for SOA and software reuse, to expand its SOA capabilities. BEA said Flashline's repository will be a key component of the AquaLogic product family enabling tracking, governing and managing liquid assets in a common repository for sharing across multiple projects and measuring the resulting business value.
The Flashline repository will become BEA AquaLogic Enterprise Repository and fulfill a strategic role as a critical component for providing a more unified environment for SOA.
Flashline develops a metadata repository for SOAs, offering a single place to store information about service components. The metadata repository is often cited as a critical component of SOA, providing a shared location to manage metadata, govern the asset lifecycle, and measure results. With growth in the SOA/Web services market, enterprises are increasingly looking toward repositories to provide visibility into their asset portfolios and optimize reuse.
Bea uses the Systinet UDDI registry within its AquaLogic-branded registry. Bea’s move came after HP agreed to acquire Mercury Interactive, which bought Systinet in January.
