Universal Application Network Benefits

SeeBeyond (Nasdaq:SBYN), the leading global provider of eBusiness and Application Integration (eAI) solutions, today announced that it will be participating in the Integration 2002 Forum XML and Web Services, in Paris on November 13 - 14, 2002. As a part of the conference, SeeBeyond and Siebel Systems (Nasdaq:SEBL) will showcase the benefits of Universal Application Network during an educational workshop to be held on November 13.

As organizations need to unify myriad disparate business processes and applications, integration is one of the key corporate constraints on revenue growth, increased productivity, and business performance visibility. Universal Application Network takes a standards-based approach to the design and development of end-to-end business processes that are executable on the SeeBeyond platform. These business processes are application-independent and can be deployed across a diverse set of applications across multiple divisions and business units. Based on XML and Web Services industry standards, Universal Application Network enables organizations to select best-in-class applications and ensures that they are not locked into vendor-specific proprietary architectures.

SeeBeyond's innovative process-driven integration solutions span the enterprise and enable customers to reduce cost, complexity, and time while implementing technologies and solutions such as XML, Web Services, Customer Relationship Management, or Supply Chain integration. With the only comprehensive and unified network-centric solution available on the market, SeeBeyond enables organizations to model, manage, and integrate business processes within and across enterprises, meeting the requirements of the world's largest corporations, such as Air Liquide, AXA Group Insurance, BMW Group, BNP Paribas Asset Management, Clearstream, FNAC, Leroy Merlin, Pfizer and Schlumberger.
