eXcelon and Siemens Business Services Form
Strategic Alliance
State-of-the-Art Web EDI Solution Now Available for Siemens'
Suppliers
MUNICH, Germany & BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 16, 2001--eXcelon
Corporation (Nasdaq: EXLN - news), the leading provider of an XML-based platform for
self-service and collaborative applications, and Siemens Business Services (SBS), one of
the world's leading providers of e-business solutions and services, today announced a
strategic alliance to deliver collaborative e-business applications to organizations
worldwide.
Built on eXcelon's XML Platform, SBS has developed a B2B e-business portal by which
approximately 52,000 Siemens suppliers can receive orders based on WebEDI using XML
technology. SBS will make similar solutions available to its customers worldwide. These
solutions will enable an organization to provide faster and more responsive interactions
between employees, customers, partners and suppliers creating prolific, executable
e-Business, Mobile Business and Multi Channels concepts.
``Every organization constantly looks for new competitive advantages. One of the easiest
ways to improve a business is to unlock and repurpose enterprise information into
next-generation applications that enable employees, customers, partners and suppliers to
serve their own informational and buying needs,'' said Alan Gold, executive vice president
at eXcelon. ``Using the eXcelon XML Platform internally, Siemens has realized a new level
of efficiency with its partner base. Taking their expertise to their customer base represents
an enormous opportunity for eXcelon.''
``We have chosen eXcelon because it is the software product portfolio which enables us to
implement flexible, scalable and cost-effective B2B infrastructures based on
XML-technologies,'' said Heidemarie Lindner, director of SBS Competence Center
e-Business Integration. ``Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) has proven to be a useful
technology to build up complex IT-infrastructures. Adding eXcelon to our service portfolio
enables us to meet the e-Business and mobile business requirements of customers of all
sizes and branches.''
The Siemens applications are based on eXcelon's XML-based Extensible Information
Server (formerly Portal Server), enabling faster, more accurate interactions between companies. The Extensible Information
Server enables partners of all sizes to participate in automated interactions with Siemens without having to make any
infrastructure investments on their own. As a result, the SBS-built system reduces transaction costs for both Siemens and its
partners, while increasing the responsiveness of the entire partner community.

Object Design Introduces Real-Time Market Data
Application for the Financial Industry
Captures 10,000, and Queries More Than One Million, Market Data
Events Per Second
BURLINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 15, 2001--Object Design, a division
of eXcelon(TM) Corporation (NASDAQ:EXLN - news), today announced the Real-Time
Event Engine (RTEE) for Finance, a new software application that overcomes the
technology barriers that limit other real-time collection and analysis tools available today by
simultaneously capturing, organizing and querying real-time data streams. Market data
analysis is necessary for many financial functions and is particularly critical for highly
dynamic and distributed environments, such as foreign exchange, equity trading and fixed
income operations.
Designed for immediate analysis
The RTEE is a high-performance application for the real-time capture, organization and
simultaneous query of streaming event data. It combines extreme scalability with a flexible
Cache-Forward(TM) architecture to support real-time analysis on streaming event data in
distributed environments without impacting capture speed. It ties into any system
architecture freeing financial system designers from having to build collection and
management applications for real-time event data and allow them to focus on the crucial
task of analytics.
The RTEE has three main components that address the primary requirements of a
comprehensive market data collection and analysis system. The components are:
Collector: Captures market data from external sources in real-time and inserts the
data into a persistent store.
Reorganizer: Organizes and indexes the data for efficient use, and re-orders
out-of-sequence data.
Query Server: Allows users to access and perform analysis on the market data in
real-time and in parallel with the data stream capture process.
Unprecedented performance
The RTEE leverages Object Design's strengths in application-specific data management solutions by delivering outstanding
performance for time critical applications while minimizing hardware investments. For instance, stock traders are typically able
to collect up to 400 ticker updates (ticks) per second. RTEE can collect from 5,000 to 10,000 ticks per second while
simultaneously querying more than one million ticks per second on low- to mid-range Sun hardware. This type of performance
enables traders, brokers and analysts to synthesize more market data from more sources more quickly, making it a powerful
application to analyze events, history, traffic rates and re-play trading scenarios.
``Simply capturing real-time market data, in itself, is not particularly challenging, assuming you're willing to continually purchase
hardware to keep up with increasing demands,'' commented Kenneth Rugg, Object Design's vice president of product
development and chief technology officer. ``However, simultaneously querying this real-time market data as it arrives has
typically been unachievable. Until now, financial institutions have tried to overcome this obstacle with inflexible proprietary
solutions developed in-house. The RTEE provides a scalable, high-performance application that frees developers to focus
their efforts on real-time and historical analytics.''
Availability and integration
The RTEE is available immediately for Microsoft NT/2000 and Sun Solaris platforms. It integrates with leading middleware
technology Application Program Interfaces (APIs) including TIBCO, Common Object Request Broker Architecture
(CORBA) and Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM).
