Reuters bases Messaging on Microsoft
InternetNews | at | by Mike
News, information and technology provider Reuters is rolling out its much-discussed Reuters Messaging, a secure, high-speed messaging service designed specifically for the global financial services industry. The new enterprise IM (EIM) system was launched at a formal event today in London, where Reuters is based.
Reuters developed the service in tandem with Microsoft. Reuters Messaging is based on the open, industry standard Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), which means it can be integrated into the terminals and systems financial professionals use to do business, as well as work with their Microsoft Windows-based desktops.
