Austin, Texas (PRWEB) June 15, 2009 — Phurnace Software, Inc., the Java application deployment company, today announced that its flagship product, Phurnace Deliverâ„¢, now supports IBM WebSphere Application Server running on z/OS, the IBM mainframe operating system. This will allow customers to automate the deployment and configuration of mission critical web applications installed on IBM Series z computers — a category of hardware expected to see significant growth with the increased adoption of private computing clouds.

“Support for z/OS is an important feature for our customers,” said Daniel Nelson, vice president of products at Phurnace Software. “As our customer base has grown to include some of the largest and most sophisticated IT organizations in the world, demand for WebSphere support running on mainframes has also grown. This will allow widespread use of Phurnace’s automated application deployment and configuration feature set, regardless of the underlying architecture or hardware platform.”

Further enabling applications on different enteprise has to be a good thing for the end user community, understanding that we run different platforms can create not only further choice for the end user community, but might create revenue based on the z/OS platform – that it can power my existing legacy platforms and the new WebSphere applications that are being developed in house.
