- MSDN Webcast: SQL Server 2005 Essentials: XQuery (Part 9 of 14) (Level 200)
- XML brings with it some powerful query languages for dealing with the hierarchical format that it typical of an XML document. This webcast shows how to use XQuery functions with the XML data type. It covers XQuery integration and discusses the fundamentals of XQuery itself.

- Projecting XML Documents
- XQuery is not only useful to query XML in databases, but also to applications that must process XML documents as files or streams. These applications suffer from the limitations of current main-memory XQuery processors which break for rather small documents. This paper proposes techniques, based on a notion of projection...

- XQuery USE ME (XqUSEme) (3)
- XqUSEme is written to allow XQueries in Firefox via the open-source Saxon-B XQuery engine, or, with an extra download, via the Berkeley DB XML native XML database. The latter can also allow storage of XML documents but it is about 52 MB to download, and about 400+ MB after installation....

- Update XML in DB2 9.5
- One of the most significant new features in IBM DB2 9.5 for Linux, Unix and Windows is the XML update functionality. The previous version, DB2 9, introduced pureXML support for storing and indexing of XML data and querying it with the SQL/XML and XQuery languages. Modifications to an XML document...

- pureXML in DB2 9: Which Way to Query Your XML Data?
- DB2 9 introduces pureXML support, which means that XML data is stored and queried in its inherent hierarchical format. To query XML data, DB2 offers two languages, SQL/XML and XQuery. One can use XQuery and SQL separately, but one can also use XQuery embedded in SQL and vice versa. This...

- Unleashing the Power of the Query - Querying Relational and XML Data Using SQL/XML and XQuery
- Users of DB2 UDB Version 8.x XML functionality might be familiar with some SQL/XML publishing functions, but XQuery is a new language that has been added to DB2. One needs to understand it a little better and see how it works with SQL/XML to query and publish XML data in...

- Introducing XQJ: A Java API for XQuery
- Query is a declarative language for querying XML that's similar to SQL for querying relational data. Most Java developers are familiar with JDBC, which provides a standard Java API to interact with a variety of SQL engines operating against relational data sources. XQJ has the same goal: It provides Java...

- Query DB2 XML Data With XQuery
- XQuery differs from SQL in a number of key respects, largely because the languages were designed to work with different data models that have different characteristics. XML documents contain hierarchies and possess an inherent order. Tabular data structures supported by SQL-based DBMSs are flat and set based; as such, rows...

- XQuery: Navigating Input Documents Using Paths
- Path expressions are used to navigate input documents to select elements and attributes of interest. This paper explains how to use path expressions to select elements and attributes from an input document and apply predicates to filter those results. It also covers the different methods of accessing input documents. A...

- Shred XML data with XQuery in SQL Server 2005
- Tim Chapman discusses new functionality in SQL Server 2005 that allows you to shred XML data into a relational format without the intensive memory operations. He also explains how using XQuery rather than OPENQUERY can lead to performance gains. Last week, I outlined how to shred XML data...

- Investigate navigation in XQuery
- Designed to be a language in which queries are concise and easily understood, XQuery is also flexible enough to query a broad spectrum of XML information sources, including both databases and documents. This sample chapter from XQuery: The XML Query Language investigates one of the primary features of XQuery, navigation....

- XSLT Cookbook: Querying XML
- This paper covers recipes for using XSLT as an XML query language. Querying XML means extracting information from one or more XML documents to answer questions about facts and relationships occurring in and among these documents. By analogy, querying an XML document involves asking the same types of questions of...
