Unleashing XQuery's Power
A Podcast by Dr. Carlo Innocenti, XML Technologies Program Manager, DataDirect Technologies.

Report Abstract: Since the earliest days of computing, IT organizations have sought more productive approaches to software development. And while we've certainly made progress, integration and legacy data issues continue to present challenges. Web services offer some tantalizing possibilities, by offering a standardized set of tools for accessing and manipulating data. Web services-based development can significantly reduce development time and enable IT organizations to build applications that combine information from multiple sources, giving them unprecedented flexibility. But even the most cutting edge applications need to accommodate the fact that a lot of data and programs continue to be locked up in legacy data formats.
