Houston, Texas. June 12, 2013

eCube Systems, a leading provider of middleware modernization, integration, and management solutions, announced the immediate availability NXTera.NET, the latest version of NXTera, the Entera compatible high-performance RPC Middleware. NXTera.NET (NXTera 6.3) adds improved support for Microsoft .NET Framework and new integration with Mono, a cross-platform open source version of Microsoft's .NET Framework.

This new release enables new and existing JAVA, COBOL, and BASIC language applications to integrate with .NET-based implementations. Additionally, legacy Entera applications can be modernized and extended to Microsoft.NET and WCF allowing them to expose existing business logic as web services.

"NXTera's ability to extend legacy 3GLs to .NET will allow its users to fully leverage the power of Microsoft WCF and the flexibility provided by Microsoft-centric tools like Sentinet, Nevatech's lightweight and scalable API management platform," said Andrew Slivker, CTO of Nevatech. "NXTera services can now be governed, orchestrated and mediated like any other .NET, SOAP or REST service."

NXTera.NET simplifies this by providing advanced tooling. They include: a C# connector, web services and Mono implementation tools that enhance SOA development and integration productivity.

"eCube Systems continues to provide companies using Entera-based RPC middleware modern capabilities" says Kevin Barnes, CEO of eCube Systems. "Support for Mono 2.10 in NXTera 6.3.net provides interoperability with .NET and modernization path for RPC-based applications.
