Cloud Computing Provider Named Startup of the Day

Linxter announced that it has been selected as Microsoft Startup of the Day. The startups featured in this showcase are recognized by Microsoft for providing extremely innovative software and services.

Less than a month after joining the BizSpark program, which gives select startups access to Microsoft tools, technologies and entrepreneurial resources, Linxter is raising its profile in Microsoft's community of customers and partners by allowing developers to rapidly build connected applications using Microsoft developer tools without needing to invest in new skills and infrastructure.

Linxter brings message-oriented middleware to the cloud, allowing developers to access stateful messaging to connect their applications. All of the communication plumbing, the infrastructure and coding complexities, are removed from the product development timeline and maintenance budget.

The Linxter cloud messaging solution consists of three components: 1. The Linxter Internet Service Bus (ISB), which is the back-end infrastructure that processes messages between Linxter enabled programs, 2. The Linxter Software Development Kit (SDK), which contains the code needed to integrate applications with the Linxter ISB, and 3. The Linxter Web Manager, a user interface for administering programs and accounts.

The Linxter ISB and SDK were built leveraging the latest Microsoft .NET Framework technologies and will help .NET Framework developers rapidly develop distributed applications.

A series of Quick Starts (open source programs that demonstrate some of Linxter's key features) and the final beta for the .NET Framework version of the Linxter SDK are publicly available.
