Apache Santuario

Introducing a StAX-based approach to XML Security

The 2.0.0 release of the Apache Santuario - XML Security for Java library features a StAX-based (streaming) API for XML Signature and Encryption. This can be used as an alternative to the older DOM-based implementation. The StAX implementation uses far less memory than the DOM implementation for large XML trees. See this blog post for some memory performance graphs that compare the two stacks for XML Signature and XML Encryption.
