Speeding up SOAP requests in a SOA

In a previous post I mentioned how efforts are under way to inprove the speed of XML processing. Another approach is taken in this article I came across in which the author shows how SOAP requests in a SOA can be cached in a middle tier.

My very own homepage

I finally got around to creating my own home page. It is extremely simplistic, but still does not reach the minimalist heights demonstrated by this web site.

I was keen to write the HTML by hand, so I have been using SelfHTML which is an excellent web based and downloadable guide to HTML. An English version doesn’t exist as yet, but they’re looking for volunteers to do the translation.

Update: Reread this old blog post and clicked on the minimalist web page link (actually from Creative Artists Agency). Previously this was was just the equivalent of a business card - company name and contact details. It's now been updated with a more dynamic javascript enabled interface. Only it doesn't do much more than before.

I guess their message is very simple - You have to talk to us.
