PR Newswire (US)
IRVINE, Calif., June 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- -- High
Performance Native XML Data Management Server with Self-Defining
Data Structure -- XA Transaction Compliant with Enhanced Node Level
Update and Locking -- Cache Adapter Provides Cached Views, with
Refresh Policies, from any Data Source -- Supports up to 64 GB of
In-Memory Cache from any Data Source -- Native Geospatial Support
of XML Messages Raining Data Corporation (NASDAQ:RDTA), a long-time
provider of scalable, flexible and reliable data management
software, today announced the beta availability of its new 3.0
release of TigerLogic(R) XML Data Management Server (XDMS)
software, which supports the January 2007 W3C XML Query 1.0
specification. TigerLogic XDMS includes the TigerLogic high
performance native XML database and TigerLogic XQuery engine.
Unlike a relational database, the TigerLogic XML database handles
multiple XML structures in the same collection and automatically
evolves the structure as new data is introduced, providing
excellent interoperability capabilities for dynamic data sources.
TigerLogic XDMS provides full XA transaction compliance (two-phase
commit) with true node level update and locking. TigerLogic XDMS
3.0 introduces the new cache adapter, which provides cached views
from any data source, including Web Services, with refresh
policies, exposing defined views of data for specific application
requirements and off-loading the need to always query the back-end
data source. Users can also configure up to 64 GB of in-memory
cache, for accelerated query performance. TigerLogic XDMS 3.0
supports the Geographic Markup Language (GML) to model geospatial
data in XML and uses GiST-based spatial indexing for consolidated
and efficient search. In addition to the existing TigerLogic XDMS
APIs, TigerLogic XDMS 3.0 now supports new client APIs: XQJ (JSR
225 - XQuery API for Java), ADO.NET (native .NET support) and an
embedded HTTP server supporting native Web Services (for ease of
deployment of any XQuery as a Web Service). For enhanced
reliability, TigerLogic XDMS introduces replication (which supports
up to eight replicated subscriber nodes from a single publisher
node) and a two-node High-Availability cluster for failover. After
performing an extensive evaluation of database vendors, Nextrials,
an Electronic Data Capture software company for clinical trials in
the life science industry, selected TigerLogic XDMS 3.0. According
to Bob Lyons, Chief Technology Officer of Nextrials, "If you spend
90% of your time dealing with XML format, reading it, rendering it,
etc., then why fight and store your data in some other
representation? We needed to manage large XML documents and only
TigerLogic provided high performance XML data management with
two-phase commit transactional compliance and true node level
locking for concurrent updates. Additionally, we can now store an
entire clinical trial study in-memory for even greater
performance." Cache Adapter There is a need in many large
organizations to bring together data from disparate data sources
and make it available to data consumers. Mid-tier cache enables
performance acceleration and mitigates contention on back-end
systems. The TigerLogic XDMS cache adapter provides the ability to
automatically cache any data addressable by the TigerLogic XDMS,
including the native XML database, relational databases, Web
Services, file systems, FTP, HTTP, etc. The cache adapter provides
policy-driven read and write access to the data to ensure that the
cached data is in-synch with the source data. With TigerLogic XDMS
multi-schema engine and schema evolution, the cache adapter also
handles dynamic data sources. In Memory Cache For additional
performance, TigerLogic XDMS supports up to 64 GB of dedicated
in-memory cache that is user configurable. The in-memory cache can
be utilized to store data from the TigerLogic XDMS native XML
database (both native and cached collections) in-memory for
accelerated performance of queries. Geospatial High volume
geospatial data in XML messages are becoming more prevalent in
government and commercial applications such as those providing
services to mobile wireless devices. TigerLogic XDMS provides an
efficient and low cost method to handle this data by using
commodity hardware, keeping data in an XML format and utilizing the
in-memory cache. TigerLogic XDMS 3.0 includes a geospatial XQuery
plug-in that employs GML to model geospatial data in XML. It is
based on Open Geospatial Consortium Simple Features specification.
Geospatial indexing is based on GiST and all supported GML
constructs in the collection are automatically indexed.
