[SoftQuad Inc (shareholder) suitor short-list] "IBM bets on XML" After putting its money on Java, Big Blue is upping the ante with an ambitious XML initiative "IBM is marshaling its vast resources around the Extensible Markup Language (XML) in an attempt to leverage the technology's potential across its product line. Although most of this work still resides in IBM's research facilities, the critical role XML will play in IBM's enterprise computing strategy will be made apparent through a series of initiatives that the company is expected to outline beginning this summer. "It's almost like stealth XML...Already finding its way into competitors' products from Microsoft's Office 2000 to enterprise server software from Netscape, IBM intends to use XML as connective tissue among its myriad development tool, middleware, and database products on multiple platforms...Company executives said that they believe XML can be the best way to exchange data via the Internet without standardizing on a set of proprietary interfaces or being required to lock into a defined set of programming tools...For example, this summer IBM is expected to announce plans to further exploit XML to share data within its e-Business product suite..."There is a lot of momentum around utilizing XML as a way to pass data around the Internet," Olague said. "It gives you a very easy way to specify what to do with that data on the receiving end when you get it."...IBM's database group is one of the earliest elements of IBM to seize on the potential of XML..." source: &copy [8 July] 1998 infoworld.com
