[ANNOUNCE] Stylus Studio 2006 XML Deployment Adapters, high-performance
Java components that provide bi-directional, programmatic access to
virtually any data source as XML, are now available. Stylus Studio 2006
XML Deployment Adapters allow developers to stream non-XML data as XML
to XML processing components including Apache's Xalan XSLT Processor,
Saxon XSLT and XQuery Processors, and DataDirect XQuery. Learn more
about XML Deployment adapters at:
http://www.stylusstudio.com/deployment/

Stylus Studio 2006 XML Deployment Adapters give developers the ability
to write industry-standard XQuery or XSLT stylesheets that read and
write to non-XML data sources as if they were XML files on the local
file system. Developers can generate the Java application code required
to run these data integration applications and deploy them to any Java
environment with the click of a button. Developers can also simplify
developing and deploying data integration applications in a way that
leverages industry-standard XML technologies, widely-adopted XML
processing components, and Stylus Studio's industry-leading XSLT and
XQuery tools.

Solve Any Legacy Data Integration Challenge in Three Steps:

1) Model Non-XML Data: Get non-XML data into XML with Stylus Studio
2006 XML Enterprise Edition. For flat files, EDIFACT and X12, Stylus
Studio offers thousands of pre-built XML adapters. For relational
databases, Stylus Studio's visual relational data-to-XML mapping tool
configures relational databases as XML data sources. Using
Convert-to-XML, users can visually map from any flat file to XML.
Additional customization is made possible through an extensibility API.
More than just a one-off data conversion tool, Stylus Studio 2006 XML
Enterprise Edition is an industry-leading tool for getting into XML
data sources that can then be seamlessly read from or written to an
XSLT or XQuery application.

2) Develop and Test Data Transformations: Use the XQuery and XSLT
Editors, Debuggers, Mappers, Profilers, and other XML development tools
and utilities in Stylus Studio 2006 XML Enterprise to create and test
your XML data integration application. All of the Stylus Studio XML
development tools operate identically, whether on an XML file or on
non-XML data that you have modeled as an XML data source (step 1).

3) Deploy Your Application: Use Stylus Studio 2006 XML Enterprise
Edition to generate all of the Java program code required to deploy
your XML data integration application. All of the settings that you
specify in the development phase - for example, the XML processor to
use, parameters, and so on - are automatically reflected in the
generated Java code. The generated Java code leverages Stylus Studio
2006 XML Deployment Adapters, allowing you to seamlessly stream your
data to and from the XML processor of your choice.


Stylus Studio 2006 XML Deployment Adapters provide access to:

* Flat Files and File Systems: Access to hundreds of common file
formats (CSV, dBase, TSV, and others); XML databases (Mark Logic
Content Interaction Server, Berkeley DB XML, TigerLogic XDMS, and
more); and File systems (WebDAV, HTTP and FTP servers, and even live
Web service data)
* Relational Databases: Integrate most relational databases including
Oracle 8i (8.1.6 and 8.1.7) and Oracle 9i (R1-R2); Microsoft SQL Server
7 and 2000; Informix 9.2 (2000), 9.3, and 9.4; Sybase ASE 11, 12, and
12.5; IBM DB2 UDB 6.1, 7.x, and 8.1 for Windows, Unix, Linux, and
OS/390; and DB2 UDB V4R5, V5R1 for iSeries (AS/400)
* EDIFACT and X12 EDI Legacy: Out-of-the-box read and write access to
EDIFACT and X12 EDI Message types. Or customize with Stylus Studio 2006
XML Enterprise Edition.
