XQuery for SOA - Ipedo's XQuery engine has been tuned to provide greater insight and better performance for SOA with a range of advanced functions, including XML payload introspection, fast transformation, content validation, and service metadata introspection. In addition, XQuery can be used to trigger subsequent 'cascading queries' based on the payload content of a Web Service. "As we see more and more of our customers make the move to SOA, their needs for creating and managing data services continue to grow," said Nick Zhang, CEO of Ipedo. "Tapping our extensive experience in both SQL federation and XML processing, we have created an enhanced platform that bridges the old and new, and takes the pain out of moving to a loosely coupled architecture."
