Sun Microsystems Inc has teamed with Network Imaging Corp in an alliance dubbed Project Bedrock that brings together Sun’s SunScreen firewall and security technology with Network Imaging’s 1View storage management system. There are no new products, just a non-exclusive joint marketing and integration effort. The first systems integrator signed up for Bedrock is Lockheed Martin Information Systems & Technologies Inc. The combination of Sun’s SunScreen turnkey firewall with Network Imaging’s Web MOM1View: WEB Multimedia Object Manager, which provides the link between corporate intranets and the 1View storage management system, will, say the pair, enable the safe deployment of World Wide Web-based applications across intranets and the Internet.
