The present invention relates to a system and methodology to facilitate data communications and data management between network entities operating in accordance with various data structures and operating environments. A managed class of application programming interfaces (API) are provided that support data communications between remote/local locations employing a first data structure and a second location supporting a second data structure (e.g., API for NET languages to access SQL Server via XML views). The managed class and associated APIs provide data transformations between such structures to facilitate communications and data management among various locations and architectures. In addition, the managed class and APIs facilitate operations between disparate object systems such as between managed and unmanaged object systems via interface support of a wrapper and associated marshalling technologies to bridge communications between such systems.
