Or-Yehuda,
Israel, March 20, 2001 --- Mutek Solutions, Ltd., a leading provider
of software solutions that improve the availability and reliability
of business-critical applications, announces that Danske Bank has
selected Mutek's Black Box Flight Recorder software solution to maximize
the availability of one of its major inter-banking applications that
is used by the bank and its financial partners around Europe. The
bank will also standardize on the usage of Mutek's Black Box solutions
for the development and testing of its Windows based applications.
Black
Box Flight Recorders for Business Critical Applications
Mutek's Black Box Flight Recorder for software operates like a flight
recorder for business critical applications on servers and clients.
With no modifications required to the applications or the system,
the Software Black Box Flight Recorder transparently records the
online operation of applications and delivers alerts before failures
occur. Application activity is recorded at multiple levels, from
the user's experience, through the system level operations and down
to the program's code lines executed by the running process. In
case of crashes or other errors, system management, help desk and
development personnel access the Black Box through the network,
playback the failed scenario and pinpoint the root cause of the
problem. Mutek's Black Box Flight Recorder solutions include Black
Boxes for servers and clients, with front-end consoles for configuration,
problem pinpointing, analysis, and Black Box management.
"The
next version of our Office Banking product will use Mutek's Black
Box Flight Recorder solution to catch bugs in various software environments
at customer sites," says Ebbe Skak Larsen, Chief Software Architect
at Danske Bank. "With Mutek's Black Box solutions we are now
able to capture bugs at any point of the application's execution
and obtain complete and detailed debugging data to be analyzed by
our support staff. By using Mutek's BugTrapper and Black Boxes during
the testing phase, we have already been able to solve several problems
in just a few hours which would have taken several days or even
weeks to find and solve without Mutek's solution. If a customer
experiences problems with our application, a rapid response is vital
to maintain customer satisfaction. By using Mutek's product we are
able to decrease the response time drastically", added Ebbe
Skak Larsen.
"The
availability and reliability of business critical software has become
a major concern of companies around the world and the financial
world is putting a special emphasis on high availability systems,"
said Yochi Slonim, President and CEO, Mutek Solutions. "We
are proud that Danske Bank, one of the most respected banking institutions
in Europe, has selected our software to enhance the availability
of their applications."
