Commerce One Picks Progress' Messaging Server

Commerce One Inc. in Pleasanton, Calif., said this week it will use the Progress SonicMQ E-Business Messaging server from Progress Software Corp. in Bedford, Mass., to secure transactions through Commerce One's MarketSite.

SonicMQ, working with an XML-based transaction infrastructure, allows auctions, content management, payment services and logistics to quickly set up and begin transactions. SonicMQ also supports Internet standards and is based on the Java Message Service specification.
