XQuery»rank: 307346by: Priscilla Walmsley
: :With the XQuery 1.0 standard, you finally have a tool that will make it much easier to search, extract and manipulate information from XML content stored in databases.

XQuery is for query writers who have some knowledge of XML basics, but not necessarily advanced knowledge of XML-related technologies. It can be used both as a tutorial, by reading cover to cover, and as a reference, by using the comprehensive index and appendixes. Either way, you will find the background knowledge in namespaces, schemas, built-in types and regular expressions ... |

Beginning XML, 4th Edition (Programmer to Programmer)»rank: 20353by: David Hunter, Jeff Rafter, Joe Fawcett, Eric van der Vlist, Danny Ayers, Jon Duckett, Andrew Watt, Linda McKinnon
: Review:Beginning XML provides a complete course in the Extensible Markup Language (XML) with an unusually gradual learning curve. In fact, the introduction states that the book is 'for people who know that it would be a pretty good idea to learn the language, but aren't 100 percent sure why.' Despite its recognition of the fuzziness of readers' understanding of the technology, the book delivers a rather comprehensive study of XML. Very little space is wasted detailing the history of XML and its relation to SGML, as is the case in many other titles. The argument for the importance of XML is made quickly, and the basics of well-formed syntax are tackled right ... |

XQuery: The XML Query Language»rank: 637903by: Michael Brundage
: :This book will be for XQuery what The Java Programming Language is for Java: a complete description of the language, suitable for both beginners and experts. This book is what you need to understand the basic design goals of XQuery and its application in real-world development. It provides solid coverage of XQuery, and is appropriate as a tutorial and a reference. The W3C specification is dense, poorly written, very formal and abstract, and does not contain many examples--exactly what you'd expect from a formal specification. Consequently, developers are starving for information about and examples of XQuery. Because the formal specifications are most people's only source of information about the standards, and because ... |

XML for Data Architects: Designing for Reuse and Integration (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Data Management Systems)»rank: 807055by: James Bean
: :'The book addresses a sorely missing set of considerations in the real world… This is a very timely book.'-Peter Herzum, author of Business Component Factory and CEO of Herzum SoftwareXML is a tremendous enabler for platform agnostic data and metadata exchanges. However, there are no clear processes and techniques specifically focused on the engineering of XML structures to support reuse and integration simplicity, which are of particular importance in the age of application integration and Web services. This book describes the challenges of using XML in a manner that promotes simplification of integration, and a high degree of schema reuse. It also describes the syntactical capabilities of XML and XML Schemas, and ... |
Querying XML, : XQuery, XPath, and SQL/XML in context (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Data Management Systems) (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Data Management Systems)»rank: 406604by: Jim Melton, Stephen Buxton
: :XML has become the lingua franca for representing business data, for exchanging information between business partners and applications, and for adding structure-and sometimes meaning-to text-based documents.
