AlotSoft (http://www.alotsoft.com), a web service integration solution
provider, is the first company that provides customized FIXML processor, a combination of
FIXML parser/generator/validator/editor that conforms to FIXML schema, an industry standards.
Historically, an application that uses XML data normally needs a GENERIC XML
parser. Apache, IBM, Microsoft, Oracle, etc. have developed a few generic XML
parsers that can parse any XML documents. XML parsing typically use DOM or SAX methods.
When dealing with FIXML message that conforms to complicated FIXML schema,
XML parsing with generic XML parser becomes non-trivial. Application developers need to
write a lot of code to parse
through FIXML message and get/set data. If such FIXML parsing code is spread in a lot of
places, it turns a well written application code into a pile of spaghetti code.
Application also needs to validate the FIXML string with FIXML schema standard.
It takes a lot of time to write XML parsing code. It is a lot of efforts to validate
an XML schema with the complicated FIXML schema. It takes a lot of efforts to maintain
these code as well. When new XML schema comes up, application developers have a tough
time updating all the hand-crafted XML parsing and validation code. It is a complete
new development/QA/production life cycle.
“Generic XML parsing for XML messages of industry XML schema standards is an art of
past.” a partner at AlotSoft LLC (http://www.alotsoft.com) mentioned recently.
“AlotSoft(http://www.alotsoft.com)'s suite of customized XML Processors blow away
one of the roadblocks that slows down the adoption of industry XML schema standards.”
AlotSoft (http://www.alotsoft.com) provides a suite of custom XML processors that
makes XML parsing, validation, generation and editing a breeze. For example,
AlotSoft (http://www.alotsoft.com)'s custom FIXML processor contains the complete object
model that is in compliance with FIXML schema. It is an object-oriented approach to FIXML
parsing and validation. The application code only deals with AlotSoft’s object model.
To an application, Customized XML parsing and validation is just a single method call for each.
The FIXML parsing and validation implementation detail is transparent to application code.
With AlotSoft(http://www.alotsoft.com)'s customized XML processor, an application developer
never deal with XML parsing/validation again. An application developer just delegate
the task to AlotSoft’s FIXML processor. AlotSoft’s FIXML processor will take care
of all the FIXML parsing/validation behind the scene and return a well construected FIXML
object to the application.
AlotSoft (http://www.alotsoft.com)'s customized FIXML Processor provides the following
benefits,
- Significantly reduce the cost of adoption of FIXML schema standards. There
are no FIXML parsing/validation code to write, to debug, to test, to maintain, and to upgrade. - Greatly shorten the time to production period. There is no new complexities and
complications involving new FIXML parsing/validation, etc. - Enable application developers to focus on what they know and do the best, their specific
business domain programming.
AlotSoft (http://www.alotsoft.com) also provides XML web services integration framework,
called FIXML Connect. FIXML processors is a component of FIXML Connect. A client can use
FIXML Processor even if it chooses some other XML transport mechanism,
like MQ Series, or TCP/IP.
