Paper Abstract:
|
We describe the design and implementation of a Web-based distributed system called TREESTORE, intended for storing compressed XML documents in a relational database. The use of a database is fully portable, requiring minimal changes to application code to substitute one database management system for another. In TREESTORE, compressed XML documents are shredded into a fixed number of relational tables. Besides the storage capability, TREESTORE provides online querying of compressed XML documents without requiring full decompression. Therefore, it is a useful component of any Web application as it combines space-efficient, database-portable access to persistent storage with online querying. |
