ER/Studio SIG On Demand Presentation – “Generating XML Schemas from a Canonical Model – A Practical Example”
Successful Information Management is critical for business success; Business Process Management, Web 2.0 and Service-Oriented Architecture can only succeed where there is a common understanding of the meaning, availability and provenance of data. How can your systems be integrated, if you can’t agree how long your account numbers are, how many lines there are in a customer’s address, or the mandatory data required when creating a customer? Reduce the risk and costs of integrating your business systems, by generating your XML Schemas from a canonical data model. Why you should use a canonical data model Which canonical model should you use What if you manage it all in XML What if you leverage your enterprise or other common business model A practical demonstration using a popular data modeling tool What other approaches are available for generating XSDs SEND AND EMAIL TO ERSIG@EMBARCADERO.COM TO JOIN THE ER/STUDIO SIG GROUP OR JOIN US LINKEDIN.
