se IBM DB2 Express-C on the cloud. IBM DB2 Express-C is ideally suited for use in cloud environments. It offers core DB2 functionality, including the revolutionary pureXML data management capabilities. You can now take advantage of DB2 Express-C for powering your database and DAAS applications in the cloud environment.
Xaj is a small Java API for accessing XML-enabled databases, focused on:
Storing XML documents
Retrieving XML documents
Batch processing XML documents
Executing XQuery queries
Are you curious about how you can maximize the XMLTABLE function in SQL/XML? Do you want to learn how to retrieve XML data in a relational format? This article describes the XMLTABLE function in detail and presents a series of examples showing how to use this function in DB2 9 for Linux, Unix, Windows and DB2 9 for zOS.

The State of Native XML Databases I’ve recently been asked by several people to summarize the state of native XML databases for those interested in exploring this space. IMHO, native XML databases are now roughly where relational databases were circa 1994: solid, proven technology that gets the job done but only if you pay big bucks to do it. However, there’s some promising open source activity on the horizon. To be brief, there are roughly four (maybe five) choices to consider: * Mark Logic * eXist * DB2 9 * Berkeley DB XML
The declarative nature of XQuery is both a benefit and a drawback: While it allow very effective high-level data querying and manipulation, it works against the expectations of many application developers The MXQuery project implements approaches to overcome these issues: XQueryP is implemented to allow easier application development by extending the XQuery Update facility, which is also implemented in MXQuery. The engine uses a very low memory footprint (both in code size and runtime data requirements) to be able to run on low-powered devices. This is achieved by using restricted type support, streaming data processing and a efficient token-based representation of XML. Features * XQuery 1.0 (currently about 95 % of the test suite workig) * XQuery Update facility, uses file system as persistent storage * XQueryP * FORSEQ: Window semantics for XQuery
