Cast Iron Systems Launches into Europe to Meet Escalating Demand

Cast Iron Opens UK Office to Meet Needs of Exploding Application Integration Appliance Market in EMEA

United Kingdom and Mountain View, CA, March 28, 2006 — Cast Iron Systems, the fastest growing vendor of application integration appliances, announced today that the company has opened an office in the UK to manage the rapidly growing demand for its products in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA).

"We decided to open a UK office because of the tremendous response we've seen across EMEA to our appliance-based approach to integration," said Ram Gupta, CEO and President of Cast Iron Systems. "From listening to our customers, it is clear that there is enormous demand in EMEA for a self-contained solution like ours that completes integration projects in just days."

A savvy team has been built in the UK that possesses the same talent, level of commitment and desire for success that is at the very heart of the US parent company. The establishment of a UK office has already attracted top EMEA resellers and system integrators and close alliances with local ISV's are being forged.

"I've built my career on successfully introducing hot US technologies into the EMEA markets," said Gerry Fredericks, Regional Director of Field Operations for Cast Iron Systems in EMEA. "I'm finding that companies across the region are actively looking for a quick and easy solution to the age-old problem of application integration and our appliance delivers just that."
