LONDON and SAN MATEO, CA, Oct 30, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) –
Kabira Technologies, Inc. , a leader in high performance transaction
processing software for global enterprises, today announced that the
UK mobile service provider, Hutchison 3G UK Limited (3 UK), operating
under the ‘3′ brand, has integrated its messaging infrastructure
using the Kabira Transaction Platform(TM) (KTP(TM)) software. Kabira’s scalable transaction software platform will enable 3 UK to
manage increasing demand for its messaging services including MMS,
SMS and email for UK customers. With growth in demand for its messaging services in the UK, 3 UK
identified the need for a new Network Application Integration (NAI)
technology that could act at the core of its service layer and be
capable of handling all messaging events. 3 UK decided to implement
a new services layer between its messaging networks, billing system
and customer profile server. This NAI services layer helps 3 UK
handle rapid growth in messaging traffic volumes, provides
flexibility to launch new messaging services faster and works to more
effectively control costs. The Kabira Transaction Platform-based
services layer can process over 4,000 transactions a second, and
enables H3G UK to process messaging transactions simultaneously while
at the same time performing real-time charging for each messaging
transaction.

Garmin and Intrinsyc claimed the second and third spots in the company’s
new evaluation of worldwide on-board handset-based navigation software
vendors. The Vendor Matrix is an analytical tool developed by ABI Research to
provide a clear understanding of vendors’
positions in specific markets. Vendors are assessed on the important
parameters of “innovation”
and “implementation”
across several criteria unique to each vendor matrix. Research director Dominique Bonte comments: “Despite
the fact that Nokia only has a branded Nokia Maps offer available on its
own handsets, it is ranked as number one due to superior navigation
features, a state of the art map upgrade and download tool, true global
presence and an innovative pricing model based on monthly fees. ”

Second-placed Garmin excelled in the high quality of its navigation
software, its ability to establish partnerships as a white label
software provider with handset manufacturers such as Samsung and its
Google-based local search feature.
