Subject: JP Morgenthal Authors Book For Prentice Hall/Charles Goldfarb XMLSeries
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JP MORGENTHAL AUTHORS LATEST BOOK IN PRENTICE HALL/CHARLES GOLDFARB XML SERIES XMLSolutions' CTO Writes Enterprise Application Integration with XML and Java, 1/e MCLEAN, VA, OCTOBER 12, 2000 -- JP Morgenthal, Chief Technology Officer at XMLSolutions Corporation and an industry expert on application integration and the internet, database middleware, and e-business, has written a guide to EAI with XML. Titled Enterprise Application Integration with XML and Java, 1/e, it is published by Prentice Hall PTR (ECS Professional); New York, New York, July 2000 ($44.95). Morgenthal was among the first to accurately predict the importance of metadata and XML to application integration as the "forthcoming metadata revolution." In a 1997 report, he predicted, "Today's middleware is designed to bring interoperability to existing applications in a heterogeneous environment. While necessary, it will eventually succumb to…a more dynamic medium for data interchange [which] can start to be seen in the Internet using open protocols. Here the two most important technologies for the next generation middleware exists – Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and Extensible Markup Language (XML)." This latest volume in the Prentice Hall/Charles Goldfarb XML Series details high-value solutions for integrating enterprise and legacy systems, XML, Enterprise Java, APIs, as well as techniques for building flexible, extensible EAI solutions with easy-to-read, fully-documented code throughout. Dr. Goldfarb notes, "With this book and XML, you can integrate your applications without converting the code!" Dr. Goldfarb coined the term "markup language" in 1970, and co-invented SGML, the international standard on which both XML and HTML are based. The book's audience ranges from technical managers planning for enterprise application integration to Java developers tasked with delivering it. Enterprise application integration (EAI) links diverse applications, platforms, and operating systems to work as one. Platform-independent Java is a powerful tool for building EAI applications; XML adds the missing link: robust mechanisms to exchange data with non-Java applications. Morgenthal addresses: Why XML is such a powerful EAI infrastructure solution Key requirements for sharing and exchanging data Building robust, high-performance Java applications for parsing and processing XML documents Moving data between Java and non-Java applications Integrating XML with relational databases Serializing Java objects into XML, and asynchronous messaging with XML Providing convenient references to XML 1.0 grammar and the W3C Document Object Model The book includes a CD-ROM containing extensive source code from the book, plus a library of leading-edge software and trialware, including: Bluestone Visual-XML desktop XML development environment; IBM XML4J Java-based parser; and Push-technologies SpiritWAVE2 implementation of the Java Messaging Service. Morgenthal's 15-year career in information technology spans software development, corporate development, industry analysis, and contract development. He is the author of articles on the B2B and ASP marketplaces, as well as numerous XML and Java white papers, and has served as consultant to Global 1000 corporations in the financial, aerospace, and high tech industries. In 1996, Morgenthal founded and was President of NC.Focus, an analyst firm serving the needs of the distributed applications marketplace. In addition, Morgenthal has developed transaction-oriented middleware for large and mid-sized corporations' mission-critical systems serving the financial industry; designed and coded financial SWAPs systems, a real-time trading network for a foreign exchange, and a distributed bond calculation server. He has been a project manager developing complex network-related software packages for Optel Communications and Cheyenne Software, where he led the team that built Monitrix, a Netware network monitoring tool.
