Hi, Barbara! thanks a lot for your response, One week ago I've found a list of NXDB, specifically:
http://www.rpbourret.com/xml/XMLDatabaseProds.htm#native looking & looking for it seems that all open source solutions want to implement XQuery in a future ... but not yet! :-( For the time being they offer Xpath and/or proprietary solutions in commercial cases and only various commercial solutions like http://www.mediafusion.co.jp/usa/seihin/sekaiju/index.html speaks about transactions, commit, rollbacks ... so I've mentioned that it seems for the time being NXDB uses are for limited purposes. I hope it lacks little time to really enjoy opensource NXDB. ( I hope not to be mistaken but it is what I've deduced from all that I've found ) thanks again, Raúl [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: "Barbara Post" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, September 21, 2002 6:40 PM Subject: Re: web app design > > ----- Original Message ----- > As a comment to this question: For some weeks > I'm looking for some people > > with experience in NXDB ( Native XML DataBases), but it seems there aren't > > much people working with NXDB because I have not still found anybody ... > I > > thought that if normally we access a relational-DB to create xml files > from > > our querys then to base us in a NXDB could eliminate this intermediate > > process ...
