Ipedo introduced Ipedo XML Views, an integration technology that unifies information management for portals, custom Web applications and Web services initiatives. Integrated into its Ipedo XML Database and Ipedo Integration Manager, XML Views expands the reach of corporate information resources. Ipedo XML Views are virtual, real-time snapshots of information from external XML and non-XML sources presented in XML to simplify integration tasks in applications. Once constructed, XML Views can be manipulated using XML query and transformation standards, and multiple XML Views can be combined to create information composites tailored for specific applications. Ipedo’s XML Views technology provides virtual connections to remote information sources for quick, easy access, whether structured data from databases or unstructured Web content. The XML Views architecture works across existing relational databases, content management systems and Web Services, and can be tailored using an adapter development kit. The all-Java design includes support for JDBC, JMS, and SOAP, and can be deployed in conjunction with J2EE application servers such as BEA WebLogic or IBM WebSphere. www.ipedo.com
