Build XML Pipelines with New Tutorial

New Online Tutorial Demonstrates Visual Data Integration Using Stylus Studio XML Pipeline

Boston, MA, December 12, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Stylus Studio (http://www.stylusstudio.com), an industry-leading provider of XML tools and data integration components, announces the availability of a new educational video tutorial entitled: Visual Data Integration Using Stylus Studio XML Pipeline. View this tutorial at http://www.stylusstudio.com/videos/pipeline2/pipeline2.html. 

XML Pipeline is a powerful visual data integration tool for designing, editing, debugging and deploying complete XML applications ( http://www.stylusstudio.com/xml/applications.html ). This online video tutorial covers the design and deployment of a data integration application that aggregates information from various heterogeneous data sources including CSV and EDI, then publishes the result to both an HTML and PDF output format, and covers the following topics: 

• Using the XML Pipeline ( http://www.stylusstudio.com/xml/pipeline.html ) to create and generate code for XML applications
• Understanding nodes which represent XML operations ( http://www.stylusstudio.com/xml/operations.html ) and other XML processing (http://www.xml/processing.html ) tasks
• Expressing the flow of data within in an application using pipes
• Executing an XML Pipeline that converts text and EDI to XML (http://www.stylusstudio.com/convert_edi_to_xml.html ), and publishes XML to PDF ( http://www.stylusstudio.com/xml_to_pdf.html )and HTML output formats. • Using the Pipeline toolbox to specify different operations including XQuery processing, XSLT transformation, data conversion operations, validation and more.
• Using Stylus Studio XML Deployment Adapters ( http://www.stylusstudio.com/deployment/ ) to convert legacy data into XML
• Working with the input and output ports in XML Pipeline
• Zooming in and out of an XML pipeline document
• Visually piping the output of an XQuery into the input of an XSLT (designed using XML Publisher – http://www.stylusstudio.com/xml/publisher.html ) for additional processing
• Browsing the generated HTML output documents
• Piping the output of an XQuery into the input of another XQuery that generates XSL:FO stylesheet code ( http://www.stylusstudio.com/xsl_fo_processing.html )
• Browsing the generated PDF output documents
• Generating Java code to run the XML Pipeline
• Debugging an XML Pipeline with the pipeline debugger
