724 touts successful tests of alert platform

SANTA BARBARA, Calif.-724 Solutions announced that a recent series of integration tests of its X-treme Alerts Platform, released in March, showed a “significant level” of performance, scalability and fault tolerance.

724 worked with Sun Microsystems and BEA to test the X-treme Alerts Platform’s ability to deliver personalized content to a large number of subscribers. According to 724, the platform processed more than 1,700 alerts per second and 10 million transactions in 90 minutes. In addition, the platform demonstrated 100-percent fault tolerance, with no transactions lost or duplicated.

“Though broadcasting standard alerts to large numbers of subscribers is an easy task, personalized and customized alerting is much more complex and challenging,” said Russ Green, vice president of development at 724. “724 has once again demonstrated our leadership and experience in providing high-performance and scalable solutions to our mobile network operator clients.”

Earlier this week, without any obvious explanation, 724’s stock surged up almost $1 from last week to trade at $3.50 per share Tuesday. The stock had leveled off by Thursday morning and was trading at $3.12 per share following the news of the platform testing results.
