Summary
Summary
Written for IT professionals working in system design and architecture, this work presents in depth models and patterns for designing enterprise information systems using XML technologies. It provides proven methods for using XML in information system design and legacy system integration and shows key XML technologies - XSLT, SOAP, SAX and others - in the context of enterprise systems design. As a data architect, the author uses terminology and a presentation style that should be familiar to other information architects .
