XML Services

As a technology leader, Integrated Technologies, Inc. can handle every aspect of XML document creation, conversion, and management. Whether you're looking to upgrade legacy documents, or create a new XML data storage system, Intech can help you achieve those goals.

In most XML-related conversion projects, there are three tasks that must be completed. First, the original data must be cataloged and prepared for conversion. Next, the data must be accurately converted without loss of data integrity. Finally, the converted information must be prepared for management and general usage.

Original Data

• Are you stuck in an unwieldy data system? Are you struggling with has-been data formats and legacy document handling systems? If you need to accurately convert legacy information to modern XML, Intech can help you do it.
• Many XML conversion projects can be hindered by proprietary data formats. Intech's team of conversion specialists are skilled at converted data formats, including Interleaf, Microsoft Word, FrameMaker, Troff, and many more.
• Information is often stored in completely different formats in the same organization. These differing platforms can be difficult to integrate. Through the use of careful tagging and checking, Intech's conversion team can consolidate these diverse formats into one unified document structure.

Data Conversion

• Any data conversion project can suffer from data mangling and loss of data integrity. However, a carefully planned and executed conversion plan can keep your data properly organized, and maintain the information structure. Intech's conversion team can also convert images, tables, and hyperlinks or cross-references so you will experience as smooth a transition as possible.
• The basic XML language has a very casual syntax. Without the careful construction and use of Document Type Definitions, or DTDs, the finished XML can be a useless mass of unsearchable, inflexible data. At Intech, you can be assured that you will receive well-formed, standards-compliant XML.
• If you have an existing document management solution, Intech can integrate other document formats into your existing infrastructure.

Final XML Data

• XML data can be stored in a variety of formats -- usually flatfile or in database tables. InTech can help create XML storage solutions along the entire range of technologies; from simple file shares to complex redundant database systems.
• At Intech, we work closely with each customer, assessing needs and customizing the final product accordingly. We recognize that data is only valuable through ease of access. At Intech, we use a mix of custom and industry-proven software to provide the best possible balance of speed and accessibility tailored to your needs.
• Perhaps the most valuable feature of XML is the conversion to other formats. From well-formed XML, Intech can create frameworks for exporting your data into a variety of formats, including PDF, HTML, WAP/WML, Microsoft Word, and others.
