Stylus Studio and Raining Data Partner to Make XML Data Service Development...



Stylus Studio (http://www.stylusstudio.com), the industry-leading provider of XML development tools for advanced XML data integration, and Raining Data Corporation (NASDAQ: RDTA), a leading provider of reliable data management solutions, today announced a new partnership to accelerate and make easier development of XML Data Services integrated in Service Oriented Architectures (SOA). The new Stylus Studio 6 XML Enterprise Edition and TigerLogic XML Database Management Server (XDMS) 2.1.1 are now fully integrated. Both products are now shipping to customers and available for free evaluation downloads from both companies' Web sites.



"Stylus Studio users are software architects and developers that need to rapidly build, test, and deploy XML Data services based on XML technologies like XQuery, XSLT and XML Schema and databases," said Carlo Innocenti, Stylus Studio Sr. Program Manager. "The integration of Stylus Studio and TigerLogic XDMS makes it easy to work with XQuery functions, XML data stored in the TigerLogic XDMS native XML database and Web Services calls expressed within XQuery expressions directly from Stylus Studio's powerful visual integrated development tools." These tools include XQuery code completion, visual tools to run and preview XQuery scripts, and visual XML editors to work with XML, DTD, XML Schema, and Web Services (SOAP) structures.



Initial reaction from the software developer community is positive.



"XML, XQuery, and native XML database technology are the keys to simplify Web Services and SOA development -- Integrating Stylus Studio and TigerLogic XDMS is a good move," said R.W. Nick Stavros, Ph.D. with G2 Software Systems, Inc. who follows innovative new technologies.



"The partnership between Stylus Studio and Raining Data lets us more rapidly deliver leading edge tools to SOA developers," said Frank Cohen, Director of Solutions Engineering at Raining Data. "SOA developers now work in a visual environment to create, test, and deploy services. Our partnership with Stylus Studio takes the complexity out of developing SOA and fits within our long-term strategy to increase interoperability, performance, and flexibility in information systems."
