Technology

Precision data at the
speed of sports.

Behind every product that XML Team offers -- be it content, games, or data entry tools -- lies cutting-edge and industrial grade technology. Prior to forming the company, XML Team's founders had all wrestled with the challenges of integrating dynamic data into customized online products, and the "state of the art" for sports data processing in 2003 was just not very helpful. So in everything we do, we try our best to make content integration as easy as possible.

Sports Data Feeds

It's one thing to have a data feed, quite another to be able to integrate it into your website or application without a lot of pain and expense. That's why we developed FlexSport.

The FlexSport system comprises several technologies to retrieve and store your data and allows you maximum choice in how to integrate your feed. Here's a summary of our FlexSport modes:

  • Basic delivered feed: Our reliable FeedFetcher software retrieves and stores your data right onto your servers.
  • Deluxe delivered feed: The same as basic, except FeedFetcher loads data into an SQL database. We are constantly expanding the types of data that are processed into our databases. (Download a sample SportsDB database.)
  • Unlimited web service: Query our databases for XML.
  • FlexSport On Demand: Our unique pay-per-document service offers prices even the smallest website can afford. Read more about FlexSport On Demand.
  • Hosted pages: Let us host and manage your data with a fully turnkey sports portal, designed to your specifications, seamlessly integrated with the rest of your website. It can be a comprehensive portal or customized to display select files types. See a demo hosted portal.

Reliability

All of our services are backed-up by many layers of quality control and monitoring, coupled with extensive logging and alerting mechanisms.

Whether it's connectivity issues such as network loads and response times, or content issues such as data integrity, our aim is to maintain superior client confidence.

We are available seven days a week to respond to our clients' needs.

Consulting Services

Our skills cover the entire range of services you'd need to effectively integrate sports data into your applications:

  • Feed licensing, content analysis, data parsing, storage and display
  • Requirements-gathering, specification-writing, and production-grade software solutions, all designed atop open information architectures
  • Superior project management, dependability and documentation
  • Leadership in XML industry standardization activities

From negotiating with feed providers, to examining megabytes of stats in multiple legacy formats, to programming feed handling queuing systems, we've probably felt your pain already, and can ease it now.

All of our consulting engagements get hands-on participation by veterans who know sports data, and get excited by the challenges and possibilities that creative sports applications provide.

We've tackled complex projects for some of the biggest names in the publishing and internet businesses.
