19.12.2008Microsoft Rebrandishes E-Commerce Chops With Commerce Server Plans
There's been speculation that
Microsoft is on the way out of
the e-commerce game as the
company has been largely
silent about the future of its
Commerce Server product.
Speculate no longer. In a
broad outline of Commerce
Server's future on Wednesday,
Microsoft is declaring its
intention to stay in the game
in a big way.
"To answer speculation,
yes, we are going to continue
Commerce Server as a
standalone product and
brand," says Ryan Donovan,
Microsoft's product unit
manager for the Commerce
Server and Web hosting product
groups.
Microsoft, which released
Commerce Server 2007 last
summer, is announcing that the
next major release of Commerce
Server, currently code-named
Commerce Server "7," will be
available in 2010. In the
interim, the company will
release "accelerators,"
slated for release in the
second half of 2008, to better
integrate Commerce Server with
other Microsoft products and
to keep pace with competitors
like IBM and Art Technology
Group (ATG). Previously,
Microsoft had focused only on
big-bang releases for Commerce
Server. ..

09.08.2007Microsoft Partners Question Commerce Server Roadmap
Microsoft this week provided
details on the future of its
Commerce Server product, but
some partners said the
announcement was heavy on form
and light on substance.
Commerce
Server 2007 includes tools for
building end-to-end ecommerce
applications and is one of
Microsoft's most enigmatic
products. Since launching
Commerce Server 2007 last
summer, Microsoft not only
hasn't provided a roadmap,
but has also shuffled the
product within various
internal groups.
Partners like the
features that Commerce Server
offers, but some say
Microsoft's lack of a
coherent marketing strategy
around the offering has made
it difficult to get customers
excited.
Commerce Server is quickly
becoming irrelevant in retail
industry verticals, said a
source who requested
anonymity. "People don't
even mention Commerce Server,
it's not even part of their
focus. It seems that maybe
Microsoft doesn't see this as
a big enough market," said
the source. ..

16.11.2005EU welcomes autonomy plan for Internet governance
The European Commission
welcomed on Monday U.S.

monitor the process carefully.
The Internet
Corporation for Assigned Names
and Numbers (ICANN), which
controls addresses including
".com" and country domain
names such as ".cn" for
China, now reports to the U.S.
Commerce Department.

Department said it would
retain oversight for three
more years, renewing an
agreement that was scheduled
to expire last weekend.

was introduced, with ICANN no

with the Commerce Department
every six months or having its

02.10.2006Move to extend Internet tax ban stalls in Senate
An effort by U.S. lawmakers to extend a moratorium on state Internet access taxes has stalled amid a dispute over whether the ban should be permanent
or temporary.
The Senate Commerce Committee canceled a planned vote on a bill on Thursday that would have extended the tax ban
for at least four more years after a possible compromise on the issue fell through.
"I am disappointed that the Commerce
Committee was unable to act on legislation to extend the Internet tax moratorium at today's (meeting)," Commerce Committee Chairman Sen. Daniel
Inouye said in a statement.
Inouye said there would be further discussions to try and reach "a reasonable compromise."..

In a joint statement, U.S. Department of Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez and Treasury Department Secretary Henry Paulson said the
