LignUp Corp. (News - Alert), the communications platform company for Web 2.0, has introduced 4.0 of the LignUp Communications Application Server , delivering a comprehensive suite of telephony Web services deployed within enterprise service-oriented architectures (SOA) and existing telecom infrastructures. LignUp 4.0 features 125 call control and media control functions exposed through LignUp Communications Web Services.
The Web services are implemented by the J2EE-compliant1 LignUp Communications Integration Server, a new component of the LignUp Communications Application Server. The 100% software, standards-based (SIP , RTP, HTTP, SOAP, WSDL2) application server enables developers to use their favorite programming languages and development environments to incorporate IP-based communications into Web applications, Web portals, business processes, mashups, blogs and wikis – often within a day or less, claims the company.
LignUp 4.0-powered applications can be used to ring any phone – IP phones, mobile devices or fixed land line handsets – independent of the enterprise PBX (News - Alert), carrier switch or network to which they are attached. By extending the reach of voice-enabled applications and services to a broad community of consumer and business users, LignUp 4.0 is empowering enterprises, Web 2.0 companies, and service providers to realize the promise of communication-enabled business processes (CEBP) for greater personalization, productivity, collaboration and efficiency.
“LignUp's Release 4.0 of its Communications Application Server, for example, helps developers, ISVs, and enterprises quickly add IP-based voice communications to business processes,” said Dana Gardner, founder of IT research firm Interarbor Solutions, and author of Dana Gardner’s BriefingsDirect blog on ZDNet.com. “Much as application servers helped redefine distributed ecommerce in the mid-1990s, telephony integration platforms like LignUp’s will help automate the insertion of voice into today’s business process for richer communications, collaboration and workflow.”
LignUp 4.0 provides an extensive library of LignUp Communications Web Services with both lower-level Web services for fine-grained control and LignUp VoIPlets – higher-level Web services that deliver popular functionality out-of-the-box.
