Learn How to Use XML to Simplify the Exchange of Data Between Multiple Databases.DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c46858 ) has announced the addition of Beginning XML Databases A database that stores XML documents. There are two types. The first is the "XML-enabled database," which is a relational or object-oriented database that has been extended to hold XML data. to their offering. Written in the well-known and successful Wrox "Beginning" and format with numerous hands-on step-by-step examples, Beginning XML Databases shows web developers how to simplify their database work with XML XML in full Extensible Markup Language. Markup language developed to be a simplified and more structural version of SGML. It incorporates features of HTML (e.g., hypertext linking), but is designed to overcome some of HTML's limitations. . It also works for database programmers trying to find simpler more standard ways to exchange data between multiple databases either internally or with external customers and partners. Some of the topics covered include: * Scripting database servers with XML and popular languages including ASP.NET, PHP (PHP Hypertext Preprocessor) A scripting language used to create dynamic Web pages. With syntax from C, Java and Perl, PHP code is embedded within HTML pages for server side execution. , and Perl * Using XML to work with data tables in Oracle, SQL Server An earlier relational DBMS from Sybase and from Microsoft. Sybase introduced SQL Server in 1988 for various Unix versions. In that same year, with help from IBM, Sybase created an OS/2 version that Microsoft licensed and branded as Microsoft SQL Server. , and DB2 * Native XML Databases See XML database. * Finding data with XML * Data modeling with XML DTDs Supported by all major database systems, XML provides an easy, standardized method of transferring data between databases and to and from the Web, independent of the software in use Offers database programmers and data-driven Web developers detailed guidance on how to understand and work with XML as data Numerous hands-on, step-by-step examples help readers learn to simplify database work using XML Shows how to use XML to exchange data between multiple databases either internally or with external customers and partners Covers XML in popular databases including Oracle Database, SQL Server, and brief coverage of DB2 Database Covers basic syntax for XML, the XML DOM, and XSL (eXtensible Stylesheet Language) A standard from the W3C for describing a style sheet for XML documents. It is the XML counterpart to the Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) in HTML and is compatible with CSS2. - with an emphasis on database use, and native XML databases Additional topics covered include Native XML databases, XPath, XQuery, XLink, XPointer, DTDs, XML Schemas This is a list of XML schemas in use on the Internet sorted by purpose. XML schemas can be used to create XML documents for a wide range of purposes such as syndication, general exchange, and storage of data in a standard format. Bookmarks
