WSO2 to Present Technical Webinar on How to Migrate Enterprise Applications to the Cloud Using the WSO2 Stratos Cloud Middleware Platform











WSO2 delivers the only complete open source enterprise SOA middleware stack purpose-built as an integrated platform to support today’s heterogeneous enterprise environments—internally and in the cloud


Palo Alto, CA (PRWEB) March 15, 2012

Cloud computing enables enterprises to cost effectively extend the reach of their applications and readily adapt to changing demands. However, a successful migration requires not only the ability to provide full cloud-native functionality—such as multi-tenancy, elasticity, self-provisioning and metering—but also seamless integration with on-premise systems that need to remain behind the firewall. To help IT architects, developers and managers address these demands, WSO2 will present a free webinar entitled, “Roadmap to the Clouds – How to Easily Migrate to the Cloud Platform Using WSO2 Stratos.”

The one-hour WSO2 technical webinar on cloud migration will run Wednesday, March 21, from 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. PST. For more information, visit wso2.org/library/webinars/2012/03/quotroadmap-clouds%E2%80%9D-easily-migrate-cloud-platform-using-wso2-stratos.

The webinar will examine how the WSO2 Stratos cloud middleware platform can be deployed in various infrastructures, including public and private cloud environments, to provide facilities such as self-provisioning, multi-tenancy, elasticity and metering. The session also will cover how enterprises can use WSO2 Stratos to efficiently move service-oriented architecture (SOA) applications to the cloud while supporting many industry standards such as Business Process Execution Language (BPEL), OpenID, eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML), and the WS-* family of Web service specifications.

The webinar will be presented by Selvaratnam Uthaiyashankar (Shankar), a senior software architect who is part of the WSO2 cloud platform team. Shankar is a recognized industry expert in security and cloud deployment. Equipped with an in-depth understanding of the elements of security, he brings quality insights into the architectural aspects of securing an enterprise whether on-premise or in the cloud.

Inside XML DTDs: Scientific and Technical

by

Product Description
Inside XML DTDs is a complete handbook to the DTDs created for general purpose use as well as specific technical ones. Coverage of data formats, technical formats, and business formats as well as a complete guide to creating, using, and updating DTDs.Amazon.com Review
The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is challenging to learn, in part because it embodies both a mechanism to build customized data-oriented Web solutions and a set of previously developed ones to be exploited. Inside XML DTDs comes at the subject from both sides to illustrate the possibilities, preparing readers to create their own XML dialects.

This book really centers on the technical and scientific fields, demonstrating the benefits XML offers those disciplines through established XML implementations. MathML–an XML dialect that displays mathematical equations–and the Chemical Markup Language (CML) are two examples of the languages presented in depth. Authors Simon St. Laurent and Robert Biggar begin the book by pointing out the huge strides XML makes to span the gap between the technology of the Web and the language of many technology fields.

An introduction to the fundamental structures and syntax of XML is presented, culminating in chapters that focus on document type definitions (DTDs)–the core of the book. Some readers may be surprised that the majority of the book is dedicated to existing XML applications, but if they read closely they’ll glean much useful information. –Stephen W. Plain

Topics covered: XML syntax, DTD document design, XLink and XPointer, MathML, RDF and Dublin Core, VHGTM, CML, BioML, BSML, Weather Observation Markup Format, AML, AIML, and Perl-based XML processing.

XML in Technical Communication

by

Product Description
In recent years Extensible Markup Language (XML) has had a major impact on software development and data interchange and has begun to have a similar effect in technical communication. XML provides a platform-independent, vendor-neutral source language for publishing documentation of all kinds and in any output format. XML solutions have already been adopted by many technical publication departments, while others are poised to make the move to XML. Authoring tools, publishing tools and content management systems are providing support for XML languages, in particular Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA), one of the XML languages designed specifically for technical documentation. Increasingly, technical communicators therefore need to understand what XML has to offer and how it can be used in the various areas of technical communication. This book fills an important gap in the market by providing a broad introduction to XML and its role in technical communication. It describes the basics of XML syntax and terminology, the use of XML in technical communication and the advantages it can bring to the production of technical documentation of all types. It introduces the key XML languages that are used for technical documentation, both as documentation source formats and for transforming source documents to various output formats. The book will be invaluable to anyone who needs a fast introduction to XML and its role in technical communication, such as those whose organization is deploying an XML-based documentation solution, or freelancers who need to keep pace with technical trends. It caters for technical communicators of all levels of markup language experience, providing a comprehensive yet easy to read overview of the use of XML in technical communication, as well as references to more in-depth material. Charles Cowan FISTC is a Principal Technical Writer with the Oracle Corporation. He has worked as a technical communicator for over a quarter of a century, developing documentation for various clients and software companies in Belgium, Germany and Switzerland, as well as in the UK and Ireland. He is an IBM Certified Developer in XML and Related Technologies and holds postgraduate qualifications in computing and software development.
