XML: Efficient Structuring and Transmission of Data XML: Extensible Markup Language is a standardized language for describing how to structure information in order to facilitate its efficient transmission from processed output to physical or virtualized device or program to program. The XML standard has emerged as an important element in information technology for organizational business enterprise; it is an open source software technology. XML provides a foundation for organizing and presenting data, the details specific to the data can either be provided or developed. For programmers, XML simplifies and obviates the need for developing code in order to convert data into a format for a development platform. The structure of the data can be isolated from the program logic; this is important when the data exchange is complex and not a simple string. Effort and resources can then be more efficiently utilized in designing and coding the application for processing and presenting the data. XML's capabilities for structuring data are essential for utilization with enterprise database applications and display on browsers. Parsing XML documents, converting XML to and from different formats, and translating objects for use with databases are required in order to leverage XML for multi-platform processing and creating links to multiple documents. XML, in conjunction with servlet and Java Server Pages APIs, is important for building an effective e-commerce web site. XML is also heavily used with scripting languages including Perl, Python, PHP, Ruby on Rails, Rebol, and AppleScript. Industry specific schemas are emerging for storing and transmitting information. XML provides DTD: document type definitions for writing specifications on categorizations of data. DTDs,
also known as schemas, are extensible and provide a baseline commonality for creating code which communicates with multiple applications in the same industry or field. As XML continues to gain acceptance, it will
enable data to be stored and structured more consistently and transferred easier. There are tools, utilities, and libraries of code available for utilization with XML. XML and Databases An XML database is a data persistence software system that allows data to be stored in XML format. This data can then be queried, exported, and serialized into the desired format. There are two major classes of XML databases used extensively with web server platforms:
Rational Developer for System z is a development platform for delivering new information technology services which reduce application complexity, deploy new applications, and modernize existing assets. It can be used to interactively test and deploy cross-platform web technologies, mainframe applications, and low-level programming languages. Rational Developer for System z provides the capability to create and utilize web services and XML for viewing, editing, and validating WSDL, DTD: document-type definitions, and XML schemas and transforming XML documents into text, HTML, or other XML document types. COBOL or PL/1 adapters can be generated and CICS TS V3 WSBind is used for converting between Web Service Description Language, XML and CICS program data in a Web services environment.
Microsoft .NET has been designed to take advantage of XML and includes enhancements to improve performance and ease-of-use. The .NET Framework XML classes were built on the DOM Level 2 Core, XPath 1.0, XSLT 1.0, XSD:XML Schemas and SOAP: Simple Object Access Protocol and include enhancements to improve the programming model. In addition to the classic DOM model, the .NET Framework XML classes include a stream-based API that offers a pull model interface.
XML web services are an important component in the movement to the distributed computing model. Open standards and the requirement for communication and collaboration among people and applications have created an environment where XML web services serve as the platform for application integration: Internet programs and web apps. Applications are constructed using multiple XML Web services from various sources that work together regardless as to where they reside or how they were implemented. The features common to the XML web services being developed include:
XML Training by SYS-ED SYS-ED system consultant instructors have been in the forefront of both XML consulting and XML training across the complete range of browser platforms - HTML, DHTML, scripting languages, open standards, and vendor API’s. SYS-ED’s XML training addresses the operational requirements of Fortune 1000 companies, government municipalities, and healthcare providers at four levels.
SYS-ED’s consultancy derived XML course offerings and tailored XML training programs reflect our 25+ years of evolutionary experience with internetworking, web servers, programming languages, databases, and mainframe system software. The examples and exercises provide the knowledge and skillset to utilize XML and build scalable web-based applications. At the client discretion, our staff will develop custom-built alternatives to XML schemas. Few software or consulting companies have been teaching XML longer or better. Qualifying a Training Assignment SYS-ED will not accept an XML training assignment without a consultation with the prospective client organization. We review the background of the employees to be trained, operating environment, documented standards, and project specifications, use that information to select the code snippets, examples, skeleton programs, and hands-on exercises. We then prepare a training strategy: lesson plan, modular courseware, training aids, and validation assessment. The pre course consultation allow us to identify and differentiate between teaching an industry standard course as compared to the client’s true need for educational consultancy: structured analysis, structured design, and code reengineering. We use this foundation in order to train client organizations to migrate the existing investment in mainframe and client/server infrastructure to Internet and mobile devices applications. And when not confident that we can provide a superior training outcome, will politely turn down an assignment. Courseware Superior by Design The courseware and training aids used in SYS-ED instructor-led and distance-learning courses is highly respected. The content incorporates an analysis of the program logic and sample programs which have been validated on consultancy projects. We review information in the public domain distributed by software companies, international standards committees, and purveyors of open source software. We perform our own independent analysis of white papers and benchmarks for software updates and new products. Content is interpreted and selectively incorporated into our student hand-outs. Given the intermixing and hybrid implementation of commercial and open source software, reference material which demonstrates and explains will be fundamental to an effective training experience. As part of presenting an instructor-led course at the client location, courseware is organized for subsequent use in a web-based infrastructure and delivery medium. |
