ZapNote: eXcelon ZapNote: Robust Native XML Data Storage and Management»rank:by: ZapThink, Ronald D. Schmelzer
: :There are two major categories of XML data store: extensions to relational database systems (RDBMS) and a new category of "Native" XML data stores (NXDs). While extensions to RDBMS systems simply enable RDBMS databases to map XML documents to relational tables, NXDs allow users to insert XML documents directly into the system without need for mapping or interacting with anything besides the XML document. eXcelon's eXtensible Information Server (XIS) is an "XML data management system (XDBMS)" that is aimed squarely at the problem of storing arbitrarily structured XML documents.

Service-Oriented Integration Report: Using Web Services and XML to Integrate Systems»rank:by: ZapThink, Ronald D. Schmelzer
: :Key Findings: Service-Oriented Integration (SOI) simplifies system integration by providing a single, simple architectural framework based on Web Services in which to build, deploy, and manage application functionality. The SOI market is expected to grow from $435 million in 2001 to about $6.2 billion in 2006. The top three EAI vendors have over 43% of the overall EAI market. With the entrance of Microsoft and other vendors in 2002, this landscape is expected to change. Web Services isn't an integration technology, but a distributed computing technology that lends itself well ... |

: :The dramatic increase of Web Services and other XML traffic on todays enterprise networks presents serious security, management, and performance considerations for the IT manager. At the root of the problem: existing network devices such as routers, firewalls, and load balancers operate at the packet level, rather than at the data or content level. As a result, existing network infrastructures are entirely unable to provide the data-level security that enterprises need. To meet this need, vendors are offering a variety of solutions with a confusing array of features. These products ... |
