Does anyone know if there is a product on the market that would allow you
to consolidate several databases in one. The data stream begins with an EDI
X12 832 which is validated in a "C" application and is gradually pushed
upstream by stored procedures, until it reaches the on-line procurement
application. A combination of poor (questionable) design has over the years
resulted in huge bottlenecks. I can't re-write the application, but I could
redesign the data structures (hopefully). I'm using Gentran, Sybase and I
have CAST for the entity diagrams.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. And please don't tell me  to
outsource it. At least not before the November election.

Thanks
Wesley Holder

William,

It's also noteworthy that the next UN/CEFACT Forum will be held next week
in
Vienna, Virginia for individuals who are interested in seeing international
XML development in action.  It's the fifth meeting since the first meeting
in Geneva in September 2002.  Details are available at
http://www.disa.org/uncefactmeeting.cfm.

Subject: [EDI-L] XML: Too much of a good thing?


"XML: Too much of a good thing?", by David Becker. "Explosion of
special-interest XML dialects could mean the standard is a success or
could be the start of a new headache." See
http://zdnet.com.com/2100-1104_2-5347309.html.

Along the lines of "too much of a good thing," see "IBM, Honda deliver

We have mechanical dogs that can "read" human emotions, and now we have
cars that "understand" addresses and can give you directions!  But we
still don't have traffic lights that optimize the use of an
intersection.  How many times have you been stopped at a light and
nobody's going through it?
