DataPower

DataPower

DataPower is a product division within IBM that produces XML appliances for processing XML messages as well as any-to-any legacy message transformation (flat files, Cobol, text, etc.). DataPower created network devices to perform XML processing, integrated application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) designed to accelerate XML processing into products, and implement a broad XML-aware & application-oriented networking strategy.

DataPower was recognized early as an innovator in XML processing which is a critical element of service-oriented architecture (SOA).

DataPower was a Cambridge, Massachusetts-based manufacturer of network devices acquired by IBM in 2005.

DataPower History

DataPower was founded in early 1999 by Eugene Kuznetsov, a technology expert who foresaw the explosion of server-to-server connectivity and its effect on enterprise networks. Kuznetsov assembled a team of M.I.T. engineers with a background in software-based acceleration to design the industry's first hardware solutions to address the unique requirements for securely processing XML traffic. In 2001 the company developed XML Generation Three (XG3) for secure XML processing.
