Abstract:
Modern relational database management systems provide hybrid XML storage, combining relational and native technologies. Hybrid storage offers many design alternatives for XML data and in this paper we explore how to aid the user in effective design of hybrid storage. In particular we investigate how the XML schema and statistical information about the data can support the storage design process. We present an extended version of our tool HShreX that uses statistical information about a data to enable fast evaluation of alternative hybrid design solutions. In addition we show the benefit of the approach by a first evaluation where we discuss how the tool aids in the storage design and evaluation process.
