I have been monitoring the performance issue for some time. Our figures
suggest XT still leads forJava with MSXML the overall leader. Obviously there
are no independent figures available for Datapower. I will post a link when
you can see some published results.

I work with a company called Sarvega (www.sarvega.com) who make an appliance
that overlaps somewhat in functionality with the Datapower offering. The main
applications I see for such products in no particular order are,
XSLT offload processing - Moving server-side transforms off the application
server to optimized hardware/software.
Security processing - Similar to XSLT offload, move processing of SSL, XMLSig
etc to optimized hardware/software.
Content routing - High speed classification and routing of XML content between
servers.
Universal translation - XSLT Transforms to either XML for further processing
or other output formats such as email or speech applications.
There is of course a great emphasis on reliable processing models, network
monitoring and such that you would expect from an appliance. The terms XML
firewall/router are sometimes used to describe these boxes but I am not sure
that really covers it all, but it might be handy as a one-liner.
