Integrating XML with relational databases using middleware approach

Over the past few years, XML has become the undisputable lingua franca standard both for semi-structured data representation and exchange format over the Internet, and also content management in various e-business worlds, especially the B2B and B2C enterprise applications. However, most of these org...
