Novell, a global software corporation specializing in enterprise operating systems has announced Novell Pulse a real time collaboration platform. What makes this so special? The platform features deep integration with Google Wave…heck, if you want our opinion we’d say this *is* Google Wave, with added security.

Novell describes the platform:

“With Novell Pulse, people continents apart can work together in real-time, sharing and co-browsing information or creating or editing a document. Individuals can also manage content overload by choosing people and topics to follow and stashing files—both native and office type—along with their related groups and conversations.”

Their security bit:

“Well, Pulse leverages Novell’s expertise and experience developing enterprise collaboration and communication tools, as well as industry leadership in creating strong identity and security management solutions. We bring these competencies together to give your enterprise the confidence to exercise real-time collaboration technologies.

They add:

“It will also work seamlessly with Google Wave so you and anyone you want to work with can have your choice and get down to business.”

Aside from this being the first public announcement of Google Wave integration by any major corporation since Google Federation’s public availability (in beta),  the news also comes  immediately after Novell lost a major client, the City of Los Angeles. Who did it lose the client to? You guessed it, Google Apps.

Novell Pulse is due for release in mid 2010.

Thanks Sam
