BEVERLY and CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- DataPower Technology, Inc., the leading provider of intelligent XML-aware network infrastructure, and Altova, Inc., a leading provider of XML software tools solutions, today announced the availability of XMLSPY 5 integrated with the Datapower XS40 XML Security Gateway™. The unified solution addresses enterprise the need for centralized XML Web Services security without forcing application developers to alter pre-existing design and deployment practices in any way. Altova's XMLSPY is the world's leading XML development tool set with over 90% market share for XML development environments. The XMLSPY 5 XML development environment provides visual design, development and debugging for all types of XML documents including XML schema, XSLT, SOAP and WSDL, making it a preferred choice for the design of XML and XML Web Services applications. DataPower's XS40 is an XML security gateway that leverages patent-pending XG3 technology to deliver processing power not available in any other XML engine. This performance advantage provides superior levels of security for XML Web services, including XML filtering, schema validation, XML Encryption, XML Signature, WS-Security and other functions, all of which require extensive XML processing. "XML Web Services security crosses both the network and the application domains," said Alexander Falk, President and CEO at Altova, Inc. "DataPower's support for XMLSPY 5 provides our customers with the ability to centralize security policies in a wirespeed network device without having to write new code or learn a new tool. Through this integration, the same XML files that are created and edited with XMLSPY 5 can be seamlessly harnessed by the XS40 to provide sophisticated security functionality." Altova and DataPower Technology will be exhibiting at Web Services Edge East in Boston on March 19 and 20th in Booth#115 and #417 respectively. DataPower Technology Inc.Altova Inc.
