AxKit

AxKit is an Apache-based XML Application Server. The AxKit home page says: "It provides on-the-fly conversion from XML to any format, such as HTML, WAP or text using either W3C standard techniques, or flexible custom code. AxKit also uses a built-in Perl interpreter to provide some amazingly powerful techniques for XML transformation."

AxKit has these features:

  • Content is sent through an XSLT based pipeline with conversion being performed at different stages.
  • Content may be presented in different ways to different viewers.
  • Media output types include web browsers, palmtops, cell phones, Television, aural, print, projection, and text-only.
  • A wide variety of character sets are supported.
  • Output may be compressed with GZip for use over slow lines.
  • AxKit uses a replaceable component architecture, allowing for easy customizaton.
  • XML transformations can be cached for server efficiency.
  • AxKit allows XML information to be pulled from a database or generated from a database query.
  • AxKit supports dynamic Perl-based web components for CGI-style capabilities.
  • A Perl interpreter is built-in, improving CGI overhead.
  • AxKit runs on a wide variety of operating system platforms.
