ZapThink
and Raining Data Webinar on Turbo-Charging Information Integration
for Service-Oriented Enterprises
| WHAT:
|
A
Webinar to introduce users to XML-enabled mid-tier operational
data servers. The latest concept in information management,
mid-tier operational data servers aggregate information
from any source, often resulting in a better than 10x
improvement in data access and retrieval when compared
to other approaches – all without making disruptive changes
to back-end operational systems. Some of the topics discussed
will include the following:
-
Jump-starting Web-enablement of enterprises and cost-effective
implementation of XML access to aggregated data through
Web services.
- Improving
the processing and storage capacity of the mid-tier
of architectures and how to leverage new ways to aggregate
information from any source and any structure.
-
Getting high-performance query access to integrated
information, including support for relational sources
as well as XML standards-compliant data formats.

| WHO: |
Web
services and XML expert Ron Schmelzer, Analyst, ZapThink
LLC, and Raining Data’s TigerLogic XML data management
server architects.
|
| WHY: |
An
integrated data accessibility infrastructure is key to
Web-enable access to operational data. XML, Java, federated
queries, transformation and other technologies all play
a role in strategic information management efforts, but
there’s been no clear path for information technology
managers to follow.
