Hi Aswini,
I recommend not depending on forests, otherwise scaling your database later on
will not be that easy.
Collections and directories work independently within MarkLogic Server. In
essence you could say that documents are always stored in some directory, but
documents can be added to collections at random.
Adding a document to a directory is as simple as inserting it with a uri that
starts with the directory you would like to insert the document into. For
instance:
xdmp:document-insert("/mydir/myfile.xml", <myfile/>) creates a file myfile.xml
within directory /mydir/. The directory is usually created automatically
(default setting in the database properties, see admin console at
http://localhost:8001/), otherwise you will need to call xdmp:create-directory
first.
Assigning documents to collections can be done with an additional argument on
xdmp:document-insert, or using xdmp:document-add-collections.
I think you will find the reference guide helpful:
