Standards Overview

At eSigma we not only talk about the importance of standards, we implement them. Our service discovery and publication platform was built using standards-based technologies. This approach allows us to efficiently and effectively provide the governance needed when building an on-line consortium or market place.


Standard  Description
XML 1.0 Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a simple, very flexible text format derived from SGML (ISO 8879). Originally designed to meet the challenges of large-scale electronic publishing, XML is also playing an increasingly important role in the exchange of a wide variety of data on the Web and elsewhere.
SOAP 1.2 Simple Object Access Protocol Version 1.2 (SOAP) is a lightweight protocol intended for exchanging structured information in a decentralized, distributed environment. It uses XML technologies to define an extensible messaging framework providing a message construct that can be exchanged over a variety of underlying protocols. The framework has been designed to be independent of any particular programming model and other implementation specific semantics.
UDDI 2.0 The Universal Description, Discovery and Integration (UDDI) protocol is one of the major building blocks required for successful Web services. UDDI creates a standard interoperable platform that enables companies and applications to quickly, easily, and dynamically find and use Web services over the Internet.
WS-Security WS-Security (Web Services Security) is a communications protocol providing a means for applying security to Web Services.
XHTML 1.0 Strict The Extensible HyperText Markup Language (XHTML) is a family of current and future document types and modules that reproduce, subset, and extend HTML, reformulated in XML. XHTML Family document types are all XML-based, and ultimately are designed to work in conjunction with XML-based user agents.
CSS 1.0 Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a simple mechanism for adding style (e.g. fonts, colors, spacing) to Web documents.
Section 508 Section 508 is an accessibility standard ensuring individuals with disabilities access to information. The web-based criteria are based on guidelines developed by Web Accessibility Initiative of the World Wide Web Consortium.
