It provides support for XML parsing, several transient and persistent DOM implementations, XPath expressions, XPointer, XSLT transforms, XLink, RDF and ODMG object databases. 4Suite Server is a platform for XML processing. It features an XML data repository, a rules-based engine, and XSLT transforms, XPath and RDF-based indexing and query, XLink resolution and many other XML services. It also supports related services such as distributed transactions and access control lists. Along with basic console and command-line management, it supports remote, cross-platform and cross-language access through CORBA, WebDAV, HTTP and other request protocols to be added shortly. 4Suite Server is not meant to be a full-blown application server.
