Title: | Essential XML: Beyond Markup |
---|
Description
The Extensible Markup Language (XML) has been anointed as the
universal duct tape for all software integration problems despite
XML's relatively humble origins in the world of document management
systems. Essential XML presents a software
engineering-focused view of XML and investigates how XML can be
used as a component integration technology much like COM or CORBA.
Written for software developers and technical managers, this book
demonstrates how XML can be used as the glue between independently
developed software components (or in the marketecture terminology
du jour, how XML can act as the backplane for B2B e-commerce
applications). Authors Don Box, Aaron Skonnard, and John Lam cover the key
issues, technologies, and techniques involved in using XML as the
adhesive between disparate software components and environments.
They explain the fundamental abstractions and concepts that
permeate all XML technologies, primarily those documented in the
XML Information Set (Infoset). XML-based approaches to metadata,
declarative, and procedural programming through transformation and
programmatic interfaces are covered. Don Box, co-author of the
Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) specification, provides
readers with insight into this emerging XML messaging technology
for bridging COM, CORBA, EJB, and the Web. Readers acquire a better understanding of XML's inner workings
and come to see how its platform, language, and vendor
independence--along with its accessibility--make it an
extraordinarily effective solution for software interoperation.
