Macromedia (Nasdaq: MACR) recently announced the immediate availability of solution accelerators for Macromedia Breeze that enable enterprise developers to fully leverage Breeze as an integral part of their existing IT infrastructure. The accelerators consist of sample code and documentation that allow developers to integrate Breeze web communications functionality directly with a company's existing directory services, intranet applications, and portal pages.
Mr. Ng Yew Hwee, Director, Macromedia South Asia said that with Breeze, Macromedia is delivering a web communication system that can be integrated with existing enterprise assets, infrastructures, and processes. By investing in an open, extensible architecture, Macromedia is ensuring organizations can more easily use Breeze to open the lines of communication across the enterprise."
Macromedia Breeze customers in Asia include Canon, Johnson Control, KPMG, Public Bank Berhad and the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT). Macromedia Breeze is the first rich web communication system that enables organizations to communicate, collaborate, and train via a single, easy-to-use, integrated solution that includes everything from live meetings to on-demand presentations.

Breeze content and scheduling information can be made available on external or internal websites and portals using Java, ColdFusion, and .NET implementations.
"The solution accelerators included with Breeze will simplify the process of integrating very user friendly web conferencing and rich media presentation capabilities into a wide range of enterprise applications and business processes.
