New Release of TIBCO BusinessEvents(TM) Delivers Quantum Leap in Complex Event Processing Scalability; Capable of Monitoring Millions of Events

PALO ALTO, Calif., Sept 22, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/ -- TIBCO Software Inc.
(Nasdaq: TIBX) continued its market leadership in the fast-growing Complex
Event Processing (CEP) space, according to a new report from IDC. TIBCO thus
marked another year as the undisputed CEP leader, with a market share of 40.2
percent -- twice the share of its closest competitor-while experiencing 52
percent year-over-year growth, according to the IDC study.[1]

"CEP is the fastest-growing segment of the global event-driven middleware
market," according to Maureen Fleming, director of IDC's BPM and middleware
research program. "We expect this growth to continue as enterprises build
event-driven applications that, in essence, act as real-time navigation
systems for business."

This news comes with the launch of TIBCO BusinessEvents(TM) Enterprise
Suite, which adds significant new functionality to the company's CEP software.
BusinessEvents(TM) Enterprise Suite features a new business user interface for
easier, more intuitive rules authoring as well as support for event streams
processing. In addition, the solution's industry-first distributed event
processing capabilities can monitor a practically unlimited number of events,
making it by far the most robust and scalable CEP offering in the market.

"TIBCO has been working with leading private companies and public sector
clients to realize the benefits of CEP long before it became such a hot
market, said Ram Menon, executive vice president, worldwide marketing at
TIBCO. " As the leading provider of event driven infrastructure software, we
are proud to be singled out in this report as continuing our lead over the
many other firms who have entered the field more recently."

TIBCO BusinessEvents Enterprise Suite is available for purchase
immediately. To learn more about TIBCO's CEP, SOA and BPM solutions, visit
