No Magic Releases Cameo Inter-Op and Cameo Workbench

 

New Breakthrough Products Enable True Industry Interoperability

With Rhapsody, System Architect and Others

 

Plano, TX, August 31, 2010 – No Magic, Inc., the leading global provider of integrated modeling software and services, today announced the release of Cameo Inter-Op 1.0 – a new addition to No Magic’s Cameo Suite which facilitates connectivity between different vendors of modeling, architecture, and requirement tools.  

 

Today, the development of modern systems is a collaborative effort that incorporates different engineering disciplines, and various forms of external data.  Interoperability among design tools is more important than ever to complete projects on time, and on budget.  Cameo Inter-Op is specifically designed to address these needs, by providing a series of connectors, transformations, mappings and rules that enable users to import and export models (metadata and diagram data) between MagicDraw® and IBM Rational® Rhapsody, or MagicDraw (UPDM/DoDAF/MODAF) and System Architect (DoDAF).  Cameo Inter-Op supports semantics and diagrams, to ensure that data integrity is maintained between MagicDraw and these products, and it provides an advanced level of customization that enables teams to define their own integration needs, and maximize the efficiency of their teams.

 

“Cameo Inter-Op’s two-way bridge between MagicDraw and other competitive modeling tools

 speeds-up the development of UML models, eliminating the bottlenecks and complications caused by different tools, used by different teams or contributors,” said Gary Duncanson, President and CEO of No Magic, Inc. and member of OMG’s Executive Board of Directors.

 

Cameo Inter-Op 1.0 is the latest progression of earlier efforts initiated in No Magic’s MagicRQ, and Cameo DataHub, along with the opening up of the core XMI format of MagicDraw’s meta data and diagram information.  No Magic has made it a priority to maintain compatibility with efforts taking place in OMG’s Interoperability Working Group.  By expanding the capabilities of data exchange with the release of Cameo Inter-Op, No Magic has further enhanced its leadership position for providing industry-wide interoperability.

 

 “We’ve made significant investments to deliver industry-leading products that improve productivity and enhance team collaboration, and I’m particularly pleased with the fact that we’re now providing interoperability that customers need, but has been unavailable until now. MagicDraw, due to its strict standards compliance and interoperability is becoming the long-term platform of choice for modeling,” added Duncanson.

 

The upcoming release of Cameo Workbench (scheduled for September, 2010) will further enhance Cameo Inter-Op, by giving customers the ability to wire-up their own connectors, or customize No Magic’s supplied mappings, to interoperate with other product formats, thus controlling their own destiny.
