Abstract: An improved system and method for processing XML documents combines a pull-based streaming parser such as StAX with an XML object binding framework such as XMLBeans. In this manner, XML documents of arbitrary size can be processed without being subject to memory limitations. In addition, various embodiments of the present invention provide a framework that insulates application code from StAX and XMLBeans. Application data objects need not be aware of StAX and XMLBeans. Code can thereby be more easily maintained, and can be swapped, enhanced, or otherwise modified without adversely impacting the operation of applications.

Abstract: A scalable fulfillment system is presented that supports business processes, manages the transport and processing of business-related messages or documents between a business entity and clients, such as customers, vendors, and business partners, and generally supports business document processing. The system intelligently manages the transportation of files from clients, through processing of files, to generating responses that return to the clients. To accommodate a heterogeneous interfacing and processing with different clients in a central system, a file normalization technique is used that captures a common meta-data format from the numerous heterogeneous file types used by numerous clients. The meta-data files, also referred to as messages, contain links to their associated data files and are processed separately.
