"Enterprises are adopting XML at rapid rate to facilitate inter-and 
intra-company communications but their network infrastructure is ill 
prepared to support the requirements of this new traffic type. 
DataPower’s XML-acceleration devices enable the wirespeed processing of 
XML that is required to support next generation enterprise 
applications," said Eugene Kuznetsov, CTO and founder of DataPower 
Technology.

"DataPower gives companies the ability to use XML that’s critical to Web 
services projects without sacrificing an ounce of performance." A single 
DataPower acceleration engine delivers the processing power of 10 
servers—breaking the performance bottleneck associated with XML 
processing and delivering an extraordinary return on investment. In 
addition, the DataPower platform provides enhanced XML security, 
protection against XML-based denial-of-service attacks, connection of 
e-business protocols for incompatible XML data streams, load balancing 
between back-end servers and real-time statistics reports.

"In the post-bubble economy, technology investment decisions require 
laser-focused scrutiny. DataPower’s patent-pending technology addresses 
a very real and growing pain point for enterprises," said Michael 
Tyrrell of Venrock Associates. "By turbo-charging their networks with 
DataPower’s unique XML-Aware networking technology, companies will be 
free to adopt next generation Web services without encountering 
performance and security pitfalls."

"We looked long and hard for a company capable of addressing the rapidly 
growing problems surrounding XML message processing performance and 
security," said Bill Burnham of Mobius Venture Capital. "DataPower is on 
their third generation of technology. Their patent pending XML 
Generation Three (XG3) technology was quite simply the single most 
compelling technology solution we have seen to date."

"XML is not a nice-to-have, it is a must have for enterprises serious 
about optimizing application efficiency. Since 1999, DataPower has been 
developing solutions to facilitate enterprise use of XML and Web 
services," said Jeff Fagnan of Seed Capital Partners. "DataPower’s 
XML-acceleration devices are a key requirement for enterprises that rely 
on XML for mission critical applications."
