SAPIENS INTRODUCES NEW GENERATION OF BUSINESS-RULES TECHNOLOGY THROUGH SERVICE ORIENTED ARCHITECTURE


Future Proofing the eMerge Technology Suite


RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, NC, October 26, 2005 - Sapiens International Corporation N.V. (NASDAQ: and TASE: SPNS), a member of the Formula Group (NASDAQ: FORTY and TASE: FORT), announced today an upgrade to its pioneering eMerge™ business-rules technology suite.  Release V4.4 of eMerge™ adds support for Service Oriented Architectures (SOA), enhancing the cost-efficient delivery and management of modular and reusable enterprise software solutions.

Providing the agility required of enterprises responding to challenges posed by the ever-increasing pace of change in the global economy, eMerge™ V4.4 includes:

Web Services – enabling enterprises to extend value by using Web Services for existing and new business services – whether provided by Sapiens or others. Web Services are published and consumed utilizing SOAP for CICS or AXIS running in an Application Server such as IBM's WebSphereTM, BEA WebLogicTM, etc. Supported transports include WebSphere MQTM and HTTP.

XML Messaging – providing the ability to both instantiate and receive XML messages to and from 3rd party applications out of the box adds an important new capability to integrate disparate silo-style legacy and new business systems.  Full integration with eMerge's business rules engine and development environment translates into higher productivity in handling real-world integration challenges.  eMerge™ XML messaging supports both synchronous and asynchronous modes of processing.

J2EE and .NET Support – enabling easy integration within J2EE and .NET architectures, including eMerge Resource Adapter which implements a J2EE connector according to the SUN Java Connector Architecture specification and EJB Binding – the ability to access eMerge™ objects from an EJB container.

Using these new features, enterprises that have previously leveraged eMerge™ to define highly complex business logic and execute heavy duty transaction-intensive enterprise class work loads can now use industry standard technologies to rapidly extend the value of their eMerge™ business-rules technology to all corners of the enterprise.

Remarking on the release, Mr. Itzick Sharir, President and CEO of Sapiens International said: “This new generation of eMerge™ demonstrates our continued commitment to enhancing and ‘future proofing’ our technology.  We protect and extend the value of our clients’ investment in our eMerge™ technology through the development of new capabilities and adapters which allow them to leverage new industry standard technologies without the cost of re-developing their eMerge™ applications. To our insurance customers, this new generation of eMerge™ enables the deployment of new business modules while providing the flexibility and speed to market required in today's changing world."
