Firms to Provide Messaging Infrastructure to Banking and Finance Sectors
Sydney – 14 October 2008 – Today, IT integrator Aipex and content networking vendor Solace Systems announced a new partnership to assist Australian financial organisations in improving the speed and throughput of their data distribution networks. Recent economic turmoil has highlighted just how quickly things move in the world of banking and finance, showing the need for sophisticated technology infrastructure to deliver instantaneous and reliable access to information. Banking today is as much about speed as it is about money.
Aipex has signed on as the sole distributor of Solace’s content networking systems in Australia to assist financial institutions in operating more efficiently and effectively in the global marketplace. Solace provides a unique hardware approach to messaging middleware, which is 10 to 50 times faster than traditional software middleware.

Aipex recognised the opportunity that Solace’s hardware based networking solutions present to the financial sector and combined with our understanding and expertise in financial systems, we believe it offers a compelling solution to the Australian marketplace.”
