XLM Parsing on the cloud

Why cloud parsing?

We choose to provide a cloud-based parser as we believe that the painful integration layer that companies go through can be minimized or avoided. 

My husband asked me once why companies buy third party software and still take months to start using it? 

My answer: The integration layer. 






What does cloud parsing mean for us?
Instead of downloading XML parser and adding it as a third party library to your existing project, you can simply register and login to our website and start parsing online. 

No more conflicts
This means that you can use our parser from any environment as long as you have a web browser!
There are no more conflict issues with JVMs, other 3rd party libraries or other parsers. 

We handle the complexity
If you are running your application on something like node.js then outsource all the mathematical complexity of XML parsing to us!! 
We handle the parsing and send your back your results over HTTPS. 



How to get started with Expresso parser 

  1. Register for a free developer version
  2. Login and click the browse button to upload an XML file or enter the URL of a HTTP based file.
  3. Click a button to open the graphical parser which lets you visually generate parsing rules.
  4. Click "run" to test your newly created parsing rule against the XML file you are using and see the results on screen.
How to connect with client code 
  1. After creating your rules you can connect remotely to the parser using java or javascript or JSON.
  2. Our client code generator creates client code specific to your user details and to the last XML connection you created.
  3. Simply paste this code into your project and immediately start connecting to the parser remotely.
  4. Results from each parsing can be returned as java arrays or as JSON objects.

How to share files 
  1. If you have a medium or large business with multiple users you can set up groups and roles graphically within Expresso.
  2. You can then use these groups and roles to share XML file connections and associated parsing rules securely among your team.
  3. You can use roles to limit access e,g, to read only.

How to access global Web services 
  1. We are creating a library of globally used web services which are set up using our parser.
  2. You can browse through these, choose web services you like and add them to your parsing suite.
  3. You can then graphically modify the web service method used and any parameters and consume the web service from the parsing suite and remotely using client code.
