SUNNYVALE, CA — (Marketwired) — 04/22/13 — Azul Systems, the award-winning leader in Java runtime scalability, announced today that Network Products Guide, industry-s leading technology research and advisory guide, has named Azul-s Zing JVM a finalist for the 8th Annual 2013 Hot Companies and Best Products Awards in the Product Optimization category. These industry and peer awards from Network Products Guide are the world-s premier information technology awards honoring achievements and recognitions in every facet of the IT industry. Winners will be honored in Las Vegas on Tuesday, May 7, 2013 during the 8th annual dinner and presentations.
Key benefits of the Zing JVM that help optimize enterprise application performance include:
Zing is designed to eliminate all the pauses, glitches, and jitter that can appear in even the best-tuned Java applications. Businesses using Zing can meet the most demanding Service-Level Agreements (SLAs) by achieving predictable, smooth, customer-delighting response times out to five nines even under high load.
Developers and operations teams no longer have to be constrained by small in-memory stores and tiny Java heaps. Zing allows Java applications to scale to hundreds of GBytes per instance without performance penalties or unpredictable pause times. More application memory enables by keeping more information in-memory instead of needing access to slower external systems.
– Individual application instances deployed on Zing automatically scale up and down both memory and CPU resources based on real-time demands, eliminating the rigid and inefficient nature of current Java deployments. Enterprise Java applications are able to use a minimum footprint and share resources during off-peak periods, but are able to dynamically scale to achieve required response time and availability metrics even under extreme loads.
Zing includes Zing Vision, Azul-s monitoring tool that is a true, zero-overhead, always-on production-time diagnostic and monitoring tool that allows administrators to diagnose application problems and determine where to focus on performance — while in production — reducing tuning and debugging iterations and also shortening development lifecycles.
An annual achievements and recognition awards program with active participation from a broad spectrum of industry voices, the coveted annual Hot Companies and Best Products recognition program encompasses the world-s best in organizational performance, products and services, executives and management teams, successful deployments, product management and engineering, support and customer satisfaction, and public relations in every area of information technology.
“It is an honor to be a finalist for the Hot Companies and Best Products award,” said Scott Sellers, CEO and founder of Azul Systems. “Our Zing JVM is a unique product poised to meet the challenges of today-s real-time business workloads. We help optimize application performance, latency, flexibility and throughput, helping customers and partners deliver new functionality that is unavailable using traditional Java runtimes. We are proud to be recognized by this esteemed industry and peer award.”
Azul Systems delivers high-performance and elastic Java solutions with unsurpassed scalability, manageability and production-time visibility. Designed and optimized for x86 servers and enterprise-class workloads, Azul-s Zing JVM is the only Java runtime that supports highly consistent and pauseless execution for throughput-intensive and QoS-sensitive Java applications. Azul-s enhanced Java technologies also enable organizations to simplify their IT operations by deploying fewer application instances while achieving lower average latencies, greater response time consistency and dramatically improved operating costs.
