Reply and Kimia announce the Alembik project at the Mobile World Congress 2008

Reply and Kimia are proud to announce the Alembik project.

Alembik is an OMA STI compliant media transcoding server based on Java (J2EE) technology. Alembik is the evolution of GAIA Image Transcoder, the component of GAIA Reply™ that implements and offers image adaptation functionalities.

Alembik is integrated into GAIA Reply™ to provide transcoding services for different media types (image, audio, video, etc).

So far Alembik has already been successfully tested and deployed (including production environments) on various application servers, including Glassfish, JBoss and Tomcat. It currently offers four communication channels for scheduling transcoding jobs: EJB facade, SOAP service, JSP tag library and HTTP servlet. Since Alembik is tightly coupled with WURFL repository, it can be adjusted to particular client needs in a simple and straight-forward way.

Alembik is exihibiting at at Kimia's booth (Spanish pavilion in the courtyard) at the Mobile World Congress 2008. More details can be found on the Alembik project site.
