A comparative analysis of managing XML data in relational database

Published: 20 April 2011 Publication History

Abstract

The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) has recently emerged as a standard for data representation and interchange on the web. Based on its popularity used in most application, the critical issues are to store and to query XML data to exploit the full power of this technology. Since relational database is widely used technology for storing and querying, therefore replacing it with pure XML database is not a good choice and very expensive process. It is thus crucial to map XML data into relational data and this process is one that occurs frequently. Many existing methods exist in the literature, and defining what the best mapping method is explicitly important. The intention of this paper is to the existing mapping methods in terms of generating good relational schema. At the end a new mapping method is developed to overcome the limitations the limitations and shows that it is efficient in terms of removing relation redundancy.
