The IBM WebSphere TM family of products offers customers an open standards-based Java Server runtime environment, along with Web site development tools, commerce software and management software to help companies build, manage and deploy powerful, portable e-business applications. The Aberdeen Group predicts that WebSphere will become the most widely deployed open-standard-based run-time environment on the market. Any company that has a large existing IT infrastructure based on IBM products will certainly put IBM at the top of its list of vendors to turn to for e-commerce/e-business solutions. A few of the companies who recently chose WebSphere are Banc One, NYSE, Dr. Pepper/Seven Up, Ingram Micro, and Merck KGaA. IBM WebSphere Starter Kit will be one-stop solution for developers building e-commerce websites from start to finish, including ready-to-use software.
