Software AG Releases Tamino XML Server for SOA Interface

In document-centric environments, the cost and effort of migrating document-based assets into other formats can be excessive. Even with large data warehouses to manage structured data, many organizations need a way to preserve documents in their native context. XML is the best way to enable the storage, search, and re-use of documents without costly conversions to SQL or other database-centric formats.

Tamino XML Server is Software AG's high-performance XML Server for storing, managing, publishing and exchanging XML documents in their native format, based on open-standard Internet technologies. Storage of XML documents is best handled by a native XML data store. At the heart of Tamino is an XML engine processing, generating and exchanging XML documents. Tamino reportedly enables direct operation on XML documents, sub-trees and elements, and is said to save time on programming, execution and retrieval, especially for complex document types.

The Software AG Tamino XML Server performs the following functions:

• Minimizes total cost of ownership for XML and unstructured data management,
• Provides secure and trusted access to existing back-end data assets,
• Stores, finds, and re-composes multi-channel documents,
• Optimizes deployment of XML-based applications and multi-lingual websites,
• Gains a single consolidated view of corporate information assets, and
• Ensures compliance with regulatory mandates for information security for document-based assets.

The new Tamino XML Server also includes standards-based interfaces for SOA integration and document-based access control to deliver more flexible document security.
