Atom Antenna Overview
AtomAntenna is our soon-to-be-released hosted solution for helping organizations of all sizes easily and securely distribute their existing data over RSS or Atom syndication protocols. Users can quickly build a secured RSS or Atom feed directly from an Excel spreadsheet or flat file coming from an existing application or database. Plus, your hosted data is maintained in a private relational database, which you can easily manage online.
Once your data is uploaded, you can build derived feeds using AtomAntenna's QueryFeed Builder. You can also subscribe to feeds that are generated from the differences between subsequent uploads of a given data source.
This makes AtomAntenna a very attractive service to use when you are feeling out the business case for RSS-enabling your internal applications.
We have designed AtomAntenna to support a new class of web application which eschews the validation of transaction processing business rules (pushing that duty upstream), in favor of making it uber-easy to slice, dice, and share data securely across a number of platforms, devices, and usage contexts.
AtomAntenna will be entering a public beta period soon.
Stay Tuned :)
