ZapNote: HyperVision ZapNote: Automating Valid XML Document Creation within Microsoft Word»rank: 6325030by: ZapThink, Ronald D. Schmelzer
: :Many of the documents of value created within an organization come from those that work directly with customers or end users.

Thus, the challenge is allowing users to create documents that take advantage of XML without requiring them to use a new, unfamiliar tool set. HyperVision has created the WorX suite of products to meet the need of document authors to create XML-enabled documents within the Microsoft Word environment.

ZapNote: Infravio: A Model-Driven Platform for Web Services Development and Management»rank: 5636267by: Ronald D. Schmelzer
: :One of the challenges of Web Services is the ability to reuse Web Service components and address lower-levels of data integration, such as matching data formats and the underlying data structures. The critical problem with existing approaches is that most enterprise systems that need to be integrated, such as SAP, provide schema rather than compiled objects for their interfaces, and so there is a need for a middle-layer to move between the schema and the SOAP message layer. The Infravio Web Services Management System (WSMS) provides a foundation-level architecture for Web Services development, deployment, and management. The Infravio WSMS provides a model for component re-use, code generation, and normalization of functionality through ... |

ZapNote: IONA ZapNote: A Service-oriented Integration Platform»rank: 5636267by: ZapThink, Ronald D. Schmelzer
: :The idea of Service-Oriented Integration (SOI) quite simple: rather than requiring systems to understand the details of a system in order to extract information, we can merely expose that system as a service and make queries to the service to meet our needs. SOI is merging different integration paradigms into a single solution set: integration between devices (from handhelds to mainframes), applications (such as Great Plains, SAP, and Siebel), B2B integration, and traditional EAI. IONA has released a platform known as the Orbix End-to-Anywhere (E2A) Web Services Integration Platform that sets the context for a very wide set of products covering the widest range of functionality in an SOI environment. |

It also offers a compelling solution for those interested in a peer-to-peer (P2P) communications format, although the protocol isn't a P2P protocol per se. |
