DESCRIPTION:Large-scale\, loosely coupled systems architectures are emergi
 ng as a natural pattern for wide-area information sharing. We’re also se
 eing database systems increasingly interacting with messaging technologies
  such as message-oriented-middleware. Integrating pub/sub functionality in
 to the database system represents a promising approach to cross-enterprise
  data sharing. On one hand\, database systems already provide many feature
 s that a messaging-based architecture can exploit\, such as reliable stora
 ge\, transactions\, and triggers. On the other hand\, integrated pub/sub c
 apabilities in the database account for information-sharing systems that a
 re simpler to deploy and maintain. However\, pub/sub and database technolo
 gy have evolved independently\, so designing and implementing database-pub
 /sub aware systems requires bringing together concepts and functionality f
 rom two separate worlds. In this talk I will discuss some of the research 
 issues involved and describe an early prototype.\n
