Getting Reacquainted with dbXML 2.0 (O'Reilly) [LWN.net]

Tom Bradford writes about dbXML 2.0 on O'Reilly. " dbXML is a native XML database written in in Java. Native XML databases (NXDs) are databases that store XML using an internalized format for faster overall processing, and representational flexibility. NXDs also provide support for indexing XML for improved query performance. The dbXML project has quite a bit of history behind it. Some have likened it to something of a soap opera. Though there has been quite a bit of flux in the project, at its core the focus has remained the same, which is to provide an easy to use native XML database implementation, with both good performance and stability."
