+ providing the next generation SOA infrastructure and programming
+ model that : -<br />
+ - enables uniform access to services implemented in heterogeneous
+ technologies<br />
+ - enables uniform processing model for service data exchanged across
+ service networks<br />
+ - enables uniform access to data residing in heterogeneous data
+ sources (RDB, XML, ...)<br />
+ <br />
+ Tuscany achieves this by providing implementations for the following
+ technologies : Service Component Architecture (SCA), Service Data
+ Objects (SDO) and Data Access Services (DAS), respectively. Hence
+ there are three different technologies implemented in Apache Tuscany,
+ each having its own motivation. You can start with any one of them
+ that interests you rightaway and move to the others.</td>
