LA JOLLA, CA — August 31, 2007 – Caucho® Technology, Inc., a leading open source Java-PHP application server vendor, today announced that Norvax, Inc., the health insurance industry’s leading technology provider, has launched a new consumer focused health insurance website using Caucho® Technology’s Resin application server.
The website, GoHealthInsurance.com, will provide a one-stop destination for consumers to research their health insurance options, compare health plans from leading insurance companies, drill into plan details, and search healthcare provider networks. Plans from many major health insurance carriers are represented, including United Healthcare, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, Humana, Aetna and others.
Visitors to the site will be able to get free health insurance quotes by entering basic demographic information. If visitors still have questions, or would prefer to learn about health insurance options in person, GoHealthInsurance.com can connect shoppers to a network of thousands of local health insurance agents.
We’ve been using Resin for years, said Brandon Cruz, President and CTO of Norvax. After using almost every available application server on the market, Resin’s stability, reliability, and advanced load-balancing make it the obvious choice for us. Cruz added, “we selected Resin because of the demands that our high-visibility web site puts on server performance.”
Steve Montal, CEO of Caucho® Technology, said, “Norvax and Go Health Insurance are leaders in the online insurance industry. Their products and research tools provide an invaluable service to consumers.” Montal added, “We have been working with Norvax for years and look forward to our continued collaboration with them.”
Caucho® Technology products include Quercus, a pioneering open source architecture for web applications and services where Java and PHP are tightly integrated with each other. PHP applications can choose to use Java libraries and technologies like JMS, EJB, SOA frameworks, Hibernate, and Spring all within one application server. PHP applications running on Quercus are faster, easier to develop, more capable, more secure, and more scalable than any other PHP solution.
Hessian is Caucho® Technology’s fast, compact, and efficient web services and serialization protocol. Used for years in both production and development environments with implementations in several languages including Java, C#, Ruby, PHP, and Python, Hessian has proved itself to be a versatile and powerful alternative to other web services technologies including SOAP.
Caucho® Technology has earned a reputation for supporting its products by a team of engineers devoted to quality customer service and a rapid bug fix and feature request program. Caucho® has over 7,000 customers including CNet, Salesforce and KodakGallery whose mission critical applications rely on Resin application server.
