IBM DB2 9: XML/Relational Hybrid Database

The DB2 Version 9 release, now generally available, features
significant new support for storing, managing, and searching
XML data. The new multi-structure hybrid architecture in DB2
combines the best of relational database management technology
with the best of XML data management support. To help you quickly
understand DB2's native XML features, this presentation will focus
on providing an overview of how IBM DB2 9 pureXML handles: XML
storage, indexing, and querying with both SQL and XQuery.

Currently we need speakers for both the technical and vendor
presentation portion of future meetings. If you would like
to give a presentation at a future meeting, please send e-mail
