CESAREA, Israel, Dec. 20, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- InterAge Ltd. (Pink Sheets:ITGJ), a leading provider of integrated web marketing solutions, announced today that it has begun working on the fourth stage of the U.N.-sponsored Tsunami Victims project.
After completion of the most critical and protracted stage of the web-based information management system to provide optimal opportunities for identification of Tsunami victims, both dead and injured, InterAge is now working to accomplish the goals set for this fourth stage. As the designated leaders of this $22 million project, InterAge is responsible for its planning, implementation, and deployment.
"We will be spending the new few months performing a series of load tests," says Kobi Freund, CEO of InterAge, "to verify that the system will meet the needs of the system. This is the stage where we search for potential bottlenecks and establish the maximum load of the server. By doing intensive testing before deploying this system, we can fine-tune the system and prevent costly performance problems in the future."
Specifically, because there were hundreds of thousands of victims, both dead and injured, it is likely that thousands of people will access the system at the same time. Testing of the system must establish clear parameters for the number of concurrent users and the hardware requirements.
"With thousands of people accessing the system, performing searches and even entering information on victims, we need to be sure that the system will stand up to the load requirements," continues Freund. "In spite of the large size and integration issues of the Tsunami project, we plan to stay on schedule. The experience we are garnering from managing and implementing this project will allow us to compete on even larger projects in the future."
