Contivo, Inc., the leading provider of automated data transformation solutions for integrating Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) applications to legacy systems, today announced the newest release of their Contivo Vocabulary Management Solution (Contivo VMS).

Contivo has made important enhancements to its Contivo VMS product to meet the demands of SOA integration for their Fortune 500 customers. Key areas are re-use, performance, flexibility and reporting.

Contivo is the first company to demonstrate re-use in the area of data transformation highlighted by the ability to automatically upgrade production data transformation maps.

"Our solution is not only unique, but also recently proven by a F500 Telco that upgraded hundreds of maps in a fraction of the time typically required," said Ed Wiggins, CEO of Contivo.

Major improvements in performance allows customers to work with increasingly large and complex messages, including XML based messages such as ACORD, and non-XML interfaces such as COBOL Copybook.

Contivo VMS also now provides many new features that improve the design and development of complex rules. By creating automated ways to apply rules to complex Schema's, customers can more easily utilize industry standards for SOA integration.

Adding to Contivo's industry leading report capabilities, Contivo has added a powerful custom reporting feature giving integration teams the most accurate and complete data available on the market today required to effectively manage large scale integration.

"As the industry leader of automated data transformation solutions, we need to meet the needs of very complex integration problems in SOA initiatives. Customers not only have more complex messages, but require faster deployment, with higher quality. Contivo VMS delivers true time-to-market benefits, while we continue to deliver efficiency and scalability through increased management and re-use," said CTO Dave Hollander.
