About the White Paper:
The first major XML language that takes advantage of the benefits of strong typing provided by XML Schema, XQuery has the versatility to manipulate both XML and non-XML data and provides a valuable connection between the world of XML and relational databases. Also, XQuery answers the growing need for a functional XML search and transformation standard. The individual perspectives on the concepts behind the XQuery language offered by XQuery from the Experts will be of great value to those who are seeking to understand the implications, opportunities, and challenges of XQuery as they design future information systems based on XML.
This chapter outlines how to integrate XQuery with a relational database system. It shows how to query XML in the context of and in conjunction with relational data and how to provide specific query-hosting environments in the contest of relational systems that the XQuery specification assumes.
