Caneum, Inc., a global provider of business process and information technology outsourcing services, today announced that it is among the first companies to provide information technology services based on the emerging technology platform developed by Ruby on Rails.

Ruby on Rails (www.rubyonrails.org) is an open source web application development framework that aims to increase the speed and ease of web development. Created by David Heinemeier Hansson in 2004, the platform has experienced a surge in popularity and Computerworld Magazine recently chose it as their top pick for "The Top Five Technologies You Need to Know About in 2007."

The Company formed this development team offshore based out of its Indian subsidiary, Caneum India Pvt. Ltd., with the goal of providing customers worldwide with enhanced outsourcing services specific to the Ruby on Rails application development platform. The Company expects to expand this focused development team as the demand for Ruby on Rails increases and will be using its recent contract win with Vootage, Inc. (www.vootage.com) as the anchor customer for this initiative.

Jesper Lindorff, CEO of Caneum India Pvt. Ltd., remarked, "Our investment in a dedicated development team specializing in Ruby on Rails will allow us to remain at the forefront of developments in new technologies. We are positioning ourselves to stay ahead of the adoption curve and believe that this new technology initiative will provide increased infrastructure value to our current and future customer base worldwide."
