Hit Software to Release Entry-Level Translator


By Edward J. Correia
March 15, 2002 — 
Hit Software Inc. this month was scheduled to release WinAllora Xpress, an entry-level version of its XML-to-SQL translation software that it claims will permit developers to move data back and forth between XML documents and relational databases without writing any program code.

According to the company (www.hitsw.com), the Windows application presents a graphical interface for specifying relationships between XML document elements and relational database columns, or vice versa; developers simply point to the relevant XML schema and database connection. The software reportedly supports OLEDB/ODBC SQL middleware, MSXML, W3C XML schema and DTDs. Once mappings are in place, importing and exporting is accomplished at the touch of a button, the company says.

According to Hit's CEO Giacomo Lorenzin, there is a great deal of need for XML-to-SQL translation. "Database administrators and application developers routinely encounter situations where they need to import or export XML data into or from their relational databases," he said in a statement, claiming that WinAllora Xpress is the first such tool of its kind, and gives developers the capability "without launching a development effort." WinAllora Xpress will be priced at $199 per developer seat.
