SOA enhancements through XML Networking
From Computing and Software Wiki
Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) enhancements through eXtensible Markup Language (XML) Network has been a very discussed topic in the last few years. The performance and scalability of current SOA models are not sufficient to satisfy the increasing business demand of today's world. Web services for major companies are faced with extreme throughput issues that affect all the underlying applications that depend on such services. [1] This wiki discusses the approaches that can be taken to accelerate this service-sharing process by expanding the use of XML technologies throughout the middleware of the SOA framekwork. [2]
