Abstract:
Office Open XML, an XML-based file format for office data, has been standardized, adopted by Microsoft Office 2007 and supported by other major office suites like OpenOffice. The question we try to answer in this paper is where Oracle XML Database (XMLDB) stands with respect to the new advances in XML Open standards. We present the XMLDB architecture that allows integration with Office Open XML. We discuss the implications for content search, generation and validation, brought by transparently storing office content in the XMLDB Repository. We explain how to use the XML storage model, XML indexes and XMLDB Repository features for improved querability, and how to integrate Office Open XML content search with relational, non-XML data sources available in a database.
