Will Next generation XML Appliances propel XML and SOA into the Enterprise Mainstream?
Intel has released some new numbers, as they noted in comments to an earlier blog entry. These are some highlights:
Decryption, Application of XACML policies, routing to different SOAP services: 1050 messages of 7.64 KB processed per second
Legacy to SOA Integration use case: 980 messages per second for a healthcare HL7 format messages
Mediation use case: 5184 messages per second, including validation, transformation, SOAP message generation.
What additional windows of opportunity do XML appliances of such speed open up?I would love to hear your thoughts and ideas about this. With processing speeds of 50 to 100 MB per second, and about 5000 messages per second secured- what additional possibilities does this open up?
Are there areas where XML formerly could not compete, but now can?
