XML database storage for web based application

Abstract

With XML rapidly gaining popularity as the standard for data exchange on the World Wide Web, a variety of XML data management systems are becoming available for maintaining web information residing in web pages of their respective websites. Earlier mostly XML documents were stored in XML based relational database systems. Later XML Native data management systems came in existence that captured all the characteristics of XML data representation. We have applied the same practice and are using XML Native database for web-based applications dealing with time series data. Choosing the right XML native data management systems has become difficult, as every database has its own functionality, performance and expressibility. Databases perform differently for different XML Documents. This paper is an effort directing towards using Native XML database for web-based application dealing with time series. An architectural details related to XML document storage are discussed. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media.
