The Definitive Guide to Berkley DB XML
The Definitive Guide to Berkeley DB XML covers Sleepycat's Berkeley
DB XML, an open source embedded XML database. Berkeley DB XML runs on
all major operating systems and has support for the most popular
programming languages. The book includes tutorials and complete
language references for C++, Java,
Perl, Python, and PHP.
Berkeley DB XML has the potential to dramatically simplify the
development of your application's data tier. With native XML storage,
flexible indexing, and the powerful XQuery query language (think SQL
for XML), BDB XML provides everything you need for efficient XML
management. Combined with Berkeley DB's transactions, logging, and
replication, BDB XML is a powerful document storage solution.
Author Danny Brian presents XML basics from the ground up for XML
beginners, and covers database installation and configuration, the
core concepts behind Berkeley DB XML, a look at application
architecture, demonstrations of simple operations (i.e., text queries) to complex
(i.e., set computations) using XQuery and FLWOR
expressions, document indexing options, and a thorough look at the
database APIs. You'll learn tips and tricks that you can immediately
apply to your own applications.
