VTD-XML 2.0 introduces a simple general-purpose XML index called VTD+XML (http://vtd-xml.sourceforge.net/persistence.html) that eliminates the need for repetitive parsing of those applications. http://websphere.sys-con.com/read/250512.htmhttp://websphere.sys-con.com/read/250512.htm Thu, 31 Aug 2006 19:15:00 GMT Since its inception, XML has been criticized for the overhead it introduces into the enterprise infrastructure. Business data encoded in XML takes five to 10 times more bandwidth to transmit in the network and proportionally more disk space to store. http://websphere.sys-con.com/read/48764.htmhttp://websphere.sys-con.com/read/48764.htm Fri, 18 Mar 2005 00:00:00 GMT SOAP is an XML based data protocol standardized by W3C for the purpose of enabling inter-application data exchange over the Internet. In a typical Web Services scenario, a SOAP message delivered via HTTP needs to be parsed before anything else can happen. As two popular SOAP processing methods, DOM and SAX/Pull force application developers to choose between performance/memory efficiency and ease of use.
