DataDirect XQuery Product Architecture Overview
As a native XML query language, XQuery was designed to simplify data integration,
local XML processing, and XML reporting. DataDirect XQuery is an implementation
of XQuery that can query XML, relational data, SOAP messages, EDI, or a combination
of data sources. It provides fast, reliable and scalable XQuery support for all
major relational databases and runs on any Java platform.
DataDirect XQuery implements the XQuery for Java API (XQJ), and is easily embeddable into any Java program—it installs just like a JDBC driver, does not require any
other product or application server, and has no server of its own. But DataDirect
XQuery can also be used with any J2EE Application Server.
DataDirect XQuery is highly optimized for relational data, can handle very large
XML inputs and outputs, and can be used with DataDirect's XML Converters to query
non-XML formats such as EDI. DataDirect XQuery is recommended for applications dealing
with XML, relational, and legacy formats, including data integration, XML-based
data exchange, web services, XML-driven web sites, XML pipelines, and XML publishing.
This diagram describes DataDirect XQuery's product architecture in detail. For more information about the specific features of the product architecture, please see our Key Features page.
