In the early days of TIBCO, a team of brilliant engineering minds defined and implemented the specifications for a product that revolutionized real-time data distribution and invented the publish-subscribe messaging pattern featuring its unique subject-based-addressing™. The product, which became TIBCO Rendezvous®, set the highest standard for messaging middleware and reshaped multiple industries, with the most significant impact in demanding environments, such as financial trading floors and semiconductor chip production lines.
With more than 10,000 customers who have successfully used the product over the years, Rendezvous has been deployed to serve some of the most critical architectures and meet the most demanding requirements, offering unprecedented reliability, availability, and scalability. It was designed to move massive volumes with the lowest latency, with minimal operational oversight—a testament to its stability and unique architecture. Even today, the product serves thousands of TIBCO’s customers across various industries and continues to deliver on its promise.
TIBCO is renowned for its customer-centric approach, delivering innovative products that solve the most complex problems across various industries. Our products closely follow the industry standards and trends, but it’s the feedback and needs of our customers that drive our roadmaps and inspire our innovations.
With that in mind, TIBCO is releasing a significant product refresh with version 9, which preserves its core functionality and backward compatibility while introducing new enterprise-class features. They are designed to help customers with their move to the cloud and significantly improve their operational excellence.
