ThyssenKrupp Steel Integrates XML Documents Into Data Warehouse 0000-00-00 Oracle

The Segment Steel of the ThyssenKrupp group concentrates on manufacturing and selling high-grade flat products made from high-quality steel as well as offering product-related services. ThyssenKrupp Steel is active globally and holds leading positions worldwide. The company wanted to modernize and merge legacy systems for scalable entry of flexible XML data from diverse data sources into the data warehouse TOMIS (ThyssenKrupp Steel Order and Material Information System); TOMIS is the uniform platform that provides data for the order execution and planning process at ThyssenKrupp Steel. The challenge was to provide a highly available, 24/7 solution. The company implemented Oracle XML DB for efficient and scalable entry of XML data streams into the data warehouse.

Essential Silverlight: XAML Basics 2007-09-01 O'Reilly Media

XAML is an XML dialect, so the paper uses a lot of angle brackets throughout. In this paper, one will have a look at the most important XAML elements. It is virtually impossible to cover them all in a book of this size, but one will present as many as possible to let one dive into XAML with maximum speed. If one has already worked with XAML for WPF applications, one already knows most of what is covered in this paper. However, there are some subtle differences: Silverlight does not support the full XAML format like WPF, but only a subset.

XMLTABLE by Example, Part 1: Retrieving XML Data in Relational Format - Harness the Power of This Useful SQL/XML Function in DB2 2007-08-30 IBM

DB2 pureXML provides hierarchical storage for XML data and advanced XML query capabilities such as SQL/XML and XQuery. SQL/XML is a standardized extension of the SQL language so that XQuery or XPath can be embedded in SQL. This allows for integrated processing of XML and relational data, or conversion from one to the other. One of the most versatile functions in SQL/XML is XMLTABLE.

XMetaL and XMLSpy: XML Tools for Different Tasks 2007-08-29 Justsystems

The goal in this paper has been to help to understand the differences between an XML authoring solution like XMetaL and an XML IDE like XMLSpy. In short, XMetaL is the platform of choice for organizations looking to implement an easy-to-use, cost-effective system for creating native XML content. XML IDEs, on the other hand, are designed to help developers create schema on which authoring solutions depend.

MSDN Webcast: Optimizing and Extending ASP.NET AJAX (Level 300) 0000-00-00 Microsoft

Microsoft ASP.NET (AJAX) makes it incredibly easy to add Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) magic to applications. But did someone knew that a few lines of hand-written code can be orders of magnitude more efficient than an UpdatePanel? That an UpdatePanel fires client-side events that can be used for advanced customizations? Or that a programmer can take advantage of the Microsoft AJAX Library directly and tap into features that are not exposed on the server? The presenter of this webcast dispenses tips, tricks, and techniques for getting the most out of ASP.NET AJAX.

MSDN Webcast: Windows Communication Foundation (Level 200) 0000-00-00 Microsoft

The attendee of this webcast will learn to work with the DinnerNow application to build and consume services created with Windows Communication Foundation (WCF). One gets the chance to build both services and clients while learning about the security and manageability features of Windows Communication Foundation. This webcast shows the Windows Communication Foundation provides a single, unified communications API by also building a Plain Old XML (POX) service that returns data for HTTP Get requests.

MSDN Webcast: Creating Electronic Greeting Cards With WPF and XAML Browser Application Technologies (Level 200) 0000-00-00 Microsoft

The presenter of this webcast explains how to use Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) eXtensible Application Markup Language (XAML) Browser APplication (XBAP) technology to create one's own electronic greeting cards using custom text, vector graphics, and photos. The presenter demonstrates how to make announcements, party invitations, or birthday cards using photographs and simple animations. WPF is the codename for a cross-platform presentation technology for rich Web applications that enable browsers to render XAML in addition to HTML. The XAML that WPF supports is a subset of the XAML that is used by the Windows Presentation Foundation.

MSDN Webcast: Windows Presentation Foundation Data Binding (Level 200) 0000-00-00 Microsoft

Data binding is one of the most powerful features included in Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF). This webcast illustrates how to use this impressive technology both to bind controls to each other, like having a scroll bar to control the size of a set of thumbnail images, and to bind a control to a data source. The attendee of this webcast will discover how to bind to both a simple XML file in addition to a Microsoft SQL Server database. The webcast also explain how to use data templates to specify how the bound data should be displayed once it is retrieved from the data source.

Live From Redmond: VB9 - Conquering XML With LINQ to XML 0000-00-00 Microsoft

XML programming is central to writing data-centric applications; it permeates the presentation tier (XAML, XHTML), communications layer (REST, RSS, WCF), is present on the server tier (XML on SQL), and is used regularly for general purposes (configuration, logging, persistent stores.) But XML is not a tame data format, peculiarities like XML namespaces can make it a beast to deal with. In Visual Basic 9.0, XML becomes a built-in data type with a rich editing experience that completely eliminates the conceptual barrier between the codes that one write and the XML that a person is trying to express.
