10,000 transactions/second, 100 billion
transactions/year by 2002 Anticipating these
new payment technologies and the unprecedented
volume of transactions they will demand, and
keeping in mind the need to uphold Visas brand
promise of security, reliability, and trust in
payment services, we chose to build on BEA.
Besides being the most proven and best-of-breed,
BEA Tuxedo was the only product that met or
exceeded all of our requirements. Scott

defies a persons ability to comprehend. But
despite such size, its so reliable that it
actually serves as a backup to other payment
platforms. Its a real credit to BEA that its
Tuxedo software is able to power such an immense
transaction system. Sara Garrison, Senior Vice
