Rogue Wave Software Announces Partnership Agreements to Extend Sales of Rogue Wave Hydra Suite

CIBER, Inc. Joins Growing List of Independent Software Vendors and Systems Integrators Offering Innovative Software Pipelines Technology

BOULDER, Colo., December 27, 2006 — Rogue Wave Software, a division of Quovadx, Inc. (Nasdaq: QVDX) providing enterprise-class software components and services that facilitate, high-performance application development, today announced that it has entered into a partnership agreement with CIBER, Inc., a leading international systems integration consultancy with more than 2000 private and government sector clients. This partnership grants CIBER the ability to provide integration and implementation services for Rogue Wave® Hydra including support, consulting and training. This marks the seventh partnership agreement completed to extend the sale of Rogue Wave Software's high performance Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) framework, Rogue Wave Hydra, and related components.

Rogue Wave Hydra empowers IT architects and professional developers to achieve order-of-magnitude performance and throughput improvements for critical software applications. Rogue Wave Hydra is based on Rogue Wave Software's pioneering "Software Pipelines" technology and associated methodology, which focuses on achieving efficiency and scalability through concurrent computing and parallel processing. Software Pipelines allow for efficient execution and distribution of software components or services for concurrent processing on available resources. This peer-to-peer architecture minimizes bottlenecks and allows businesses to achieve new levels of throughput and performance.

Rogue Wave Hydra also supports the Service Component Architecture or SCA specification and is the first high-performance SOA development framework that complements key concepts of the SCA architecture, including cross-platform components, tightly-and loosely-coupled service components, Web service standards, BPEL and Service Data Objects (SDO). Future releases of Rogue Wave Hydra will add further support for SCA application programming interfaces, or APIs, and will be compatible with future products from other vendors, while providing specialized capabilities for high-performance application requirements.

"With the accelerating adoption of SOA technology, more and more enterprise companies are challenged to find cost-effective ways to scale applications to handle increasing volumes of users and transactions," said Tom Gaunt, senior vice president, alliance and sales, Rogue Wave Software division, Quovadx. "The Rogue Wave® Hydra Suite, with its unique Software Pipelines technology, supports cost-effective, high-performance deployments by enabling concurrent processing of business services within and across servers, while preserving critical business rules. We're pleased to extend the availability of this solution to our key business partners and their customers."
