Nuxeo switches to Java EE

Nuxeo switches to Java technologies - the next version of the leading open source ECM platform will
be based on Java EE

Paris - Sept 22, 2006 - for immediate release.

Nuxeo, the leader of open source ECM, today announced that the next version of its ECM platform,
currently known as "Nuxeo CPS", will be based on open source Java technologies and renamed "Nuxeo
5".

Nuxeo 5, which will be released on November 15, is a complete ECM plaform enabling the management
of the full document lifecycle, either in "web client" mode or in "rich client" mode. The Nuxeo 5
platform is the answer to the business process efficiency and compliance needs that western
companies are facing today. 

"The dynamism and professionalism of the current open source Java ecosystem convinced us of the
strategic relevance of our choice", says Stefane Fermigier, President and CEO of Nuxeo. "As an open
source software vendor, we ensure the continuity of our product line while adopting the
technologies that best enable it to address the needs of our customers and partners".

For Arnaud Lefevre, deputy general manager in charge of business development: "We answer the main
request of our system integrator partners, our customers and prospective customers. The use of
tested and supported Java technologies makes it possible to better integrate our applications in
their information systems, and to better use the competences of their teams".

According to Eric Barroca, deputy general manager in charge of operations: "The new Nuxeo 5
platform benefits from an integrated and innovative vision of ECM, resulting from our 5-year
experience working for major accounts in the public administration and in the industry, and is able
to address the new market constraints. With the switch to Java we witness an increase of programmer
productivity and application robustness and scalability, on all the business-critical projects we
are now addressing".

"The availability of Nuxeo 5 in the Java EE environment is to be put in perspective with the
upcoming open sourcing of the Java technology", says Eric Mahe, Marketing Director for New
Technologies, Sun France. "Sun is delighted by Nuxeo's announcement and by all the synergies which
will be created between this vendor and the Java community, especially active in France."

Technical and strategic information concerning the new platform, including a FAQ about the Java
switch, have been assembled on the new www.nuxeo.org website, site of the community of the
developers and users of the Nuxeo platform. According to the open source development model chosen
by Nuxeo, the source code of the platform is already available for third-party developers, and the
products will be formally released in the upcoming weeks.
