An Efficient Middleware for Storing and Querying XML Data in RDBMS Using XParent Method

摘要：

In this paper, we propose ? middleware that provides a transformation utility for storing and querying XML data in relational databases using model mapping method. To store XML documents in RDBMS, several mapping approaches can be used. We chose structure independent approach. In this middleware the model mapping method XParent and free of cost available technologies MYSQL, PhpMyAdmin and PHPclasses are used as examples. This middleware stores XML tables and does not require a direct extension of SQL thus this middleware can be used with any relational databases management system with little changes in the middleware interface. The middleware offers two alternative methods -namely XParent and Edge- for storing XML in the database. As the proposed middleware is using XParent so it will be proved to be an efficient solution with respect to XPath query processing which used as a part of the proposed middleware. The key to proposed middleware is to store XML document in a relational database through a user interface and with an XPath query processor. We present a comparative experimental study on the performance of insertion and retrieval of two types of XML documents along with a set of XPath queries executed though the XPath.
