Abstract

XML support is being added to existing database managementsystems (DBMSs) and native XML systems are beingdeveloped both in industry and in academia. The individualperformance characteristics of these approachesas well as the relative performance of various systems isan ongoing concern. In this paper we discuss the XBenchXML benchmark and report on the relative performance ofvarious DBMSs. XBench is a family of XML benchmarkswhich recognizes that the XML data that DBMSs manageare quite varied and no one database schema and workloadcan properly capture this variety. Thus, the members of thisbenchmark family have been defined for capturing diverseapplication domains.
