Abstract

As XML has evolved as a data model for semi-structured data and the de facto standard for data exchange (e.g., Atom, RSS, and XBRL), XML data management has been the subject of extensive research and development in both academia and industry. Among the XML data management issues, storage and query processing are the most critical ones with respect to system performance. Different storage schemes have their own pros and cons. Some storage schemes are more amenable to fast navigation, and some schemes perform better in fragment extraction and document reconstruction. Therefore, based on their own requirements, different systems adopt different storage schemes to tradeoff one set of features over the others. In this chapter, the authors review different native storage formats and query processing techniques that have been developed in both academia and industry. Various XML indexing techniques are also presented since they can be treated as specialized storage and query processing tools.
