Sedna: native XML database management system (internals overview)
Abstract
We present a native XML database management system, Sedna, which is implemented from scratch as a full-featured database management system for storing large amounts of XML data. We believe that the key contribution of this system is an improved schema-based clustering storage strategy efficient for both XML querying and updating, and powered by a novel memory management technique. We position our approach with respect to state-of-the-art methods.
