IT'S OUT OF THE BOTTLE - SUN
INTRODUCES JINITM CONNECTION
TECHNOLOGY, ENABLING THE
SIMPLE CONNECTION OF ANY
DEVICE TO ANY NETWORK, ANY
TIME, ANYWHERE
Sun and 37 Technology Industry Leaders
Embrace
Break-Away Technology Which Enables Development
of
a New Breed of Products and Services
PALO ALTO, California - January

vision "The Network is the
ComputerTM," Sun Microsystems,
Inc. today announced the
availability of JiniTM
connection technology and the
groundswell of support from
major industry partners ranging
from consumer electronics
manufacturers to
software vendors to service providers. Jini
technology creates an entirely new means of
accessing the network, and in turn opens the
doors to a new realm of information, services
and products. Jini technology provides a simple
yet powerful solution for the enterprise and
consumer markets that enables instant
connectivity of devices to the network. A
prestigious federation of companies joining Sun
in the adoption of Jini technology is expected
to release Jini technology-enabled products
beginning late this year, and is actively
contributing to the evolution of this
break-away technology that allows for
breakthrough innovation.
Jini technology enables any device to
participate in a network regardless of the
underlying software or hardware. Serving as a
constitution for network devices, Jini
technology sets up basic rules for how to
connect to the network, share information, and
interact - while remaining transparent to the
user. Because Jini technology is
platform-independent, devices are no longer
limited by specific brands of software,
processors, device drivers or traditional
networking protocol
