Powerful Information at Your Fingertips

On Network Computing's Application Infrastructure Channel, our real-world technology editors cover the products, technologies and services that serve as the "glue" of enterprise computing -- databases, integration technologies, new IT approaches such as service-oriented architectures and software-as-a-service and much more. The way that applications are built is changing -- today's apps are lightweight, built-to-be-integrated and designed to consume data not only from within your enterprise but from customers, partners and suppliers as well. We cover the basics of data storage, including enterprise databases from long-time providers such as IBM and Oracle, as well as open source alternatives such as MySQL. Learn about the latest data warehousing and business intelligence products and approaches that deliver key operational data to help executives run the business. In the area of Enterprise Application Integration, or EAI, we cover traditional EAI solutions as well as new XML- and SOA-based approaches. Vendors from previously separate markets are jockeying to provide SOA solutions, and we cover them all. Key SOA components include management, security, development tools and Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), the middleware that distinguishes an SOA from standalone Web services. We also detail the under-the-covers technologies driving these new approaches, including XML, or eXtensible Markup Language; SOAP, or Simple Object Access Protocol; SAML, or Security Assertion Markup Language; and more Web services standards and technologies. Check out our reviews, tests and analysis of integration and application infrastructure technology and products. And don't miss the latest news, white papers and featured sites on the topic of application and data integration.
