VTD-XML

XimpleWare's VTD-XML is, far and away, the industry's most advanced and powerful XML processing model  for SOA and Cloud Computing! It is simultaneously:
  • The world's most memory-efficient (1.3x~1.5x the size of an XML document) random-access XML parser.
  • The world's fastest XML parser: On a Core2 2.5Ghz Desktop, VTD-XML outperforms DOM parsers by 5x~12x, delivering 150~250 MB/sec per core sustained throughput.
  • The world's fastest XPath 1.0 implementation.
  • The world's most efficient XML indexer that seamlessly integrates with your XML applications.
  • The world's only incremental-update capable XML parser capable of cutting, pasting, splitting and assembling XML documents with max efficiency.
  • The world's only XML parser that allows you to use XPath to process 256 GB XML documents.
  • The XML technology that they don't want you to know about.
  The latest version is 2.10, available in C, C++, C# and Java, and can be downloaded here.

 VTD-XML can be viewed a suite of innovative XML processing technologies centered around a non-extractive XML parsing technique called Virtual Token Descriptor (VTD). Depending on the perspective, VTD-XML can be viewed as one of the following:
  • A "document-centric" XML parser
  • A native XML indexer or a file format that uses binary data to enhance the text XML
  • An incremental XML content modifier
  • An XML slicer/splicer/assembler
  • An XML editor/eraser
  • A way to port XML processing on chip
