- Wed Jul 11 2001 BEA to buy Crossgain
BEA Systems has announced its intention to acquire privately held software developer Crossgain for an undisclosed amount.

BEA, based in San Jose, Calif., makes application-server software that allows customers to bridge various software programs and conduct e-commerce transactions. With its WebLogic server software, developers have a base on which to build and integrate e-business processes. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
