Why is VTD-XML uniquely suited for implementing SOA applications?
Simply put, while each of its benefits stands out among the crowd of XML technologies, it is the combination of VTD-XML’s attributes and benefits that make VTD-XML the ultimate XML technology for building next generation, data-centric, loosely-couple SOA and Cloud applications. And no other XML technologies come close. At a deeper level, VTD-XML possibly marks the start of a paradigm shift in which (1) “modeling everything as an object” is no longer a knee-jerk reaction — it is done only when it makes sense; and (2) OO-based approaches to building distributed applications should finally given way to data-centric way of building distributed applications.
