The specification defines the data type XML, functions for working with XML, including element construction, mapping data from relational tables, combining XML fragments, and embedding XQuery expressions in SQL statements. Functions which can be embedded include XMLQUERY (which extracts XML or values from an XML field) and XMLEXISTS (which ...
FLWOR is loosely analogous to SQL's SELECT-FROM-WHERE and can be used to provide join-like functionality to XML documents. for creates a sequence of nodes; let binds a sequence to a variable; where filters the nodes on a boolean expression; order by sorts the nodes; return gets evaluated once for every node
XML is `shredded` into a series of Tables based on a Schema [5] XML is stored into a native XML Type as defined by ISO Standard 9075-14 [6] RDBMS that support the ISO XML Type are: IBM DB2 (pureXML [7]) Microsoft SQL Server [8] Oracle Database [9] PostgreSQL [10] Typically an XML-enabled database is best suited where the majority of data are ...
Data Mining Extensions (DMX) is a query language for data mining models supported by Microsoft's SQL Server Analysis Services product. [1] Like SQL, it supports a data definition language (DDL), data manipulation language (DML) and a data query language (DQL), all three with SQL-like syntax. Whereas SQL statements operate on relational tables ...
The terms data dictionary and data repository indicate a more general software utility than a catalogue. A catalogue is closely coupled with the DBMS software. It provides the information stored in it to the user and the DBA, but it is mainly accessed by the various software modules of the DBMS itself, such as DDL and DML compilers, the query optimiser, the transaction processor, report ...
SQL was initially developed at IBM by Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce after learning about the relational model from Edgar F. Codd [12] in the early 1970s. [13] This version, initially called SEQUEL (Structured English Query Language), was designed to manipulate and retrieve data stored in IBM's original quasirelational database management system, System R, which a group at IBM San ...
SQL includes operators and functions for calculating values on stored values. SQL allows the use of expressions in the select list to project data, as in the following example, which returns a list of books that cost more than 100.00 with an additional sales_tax column containing a sales tax figure calculated at 6% of the price.
In SQL, the data manipulation language comprises the SQL-data change statements, [3] which modify stored data but not the schema or database objects. Manipulation of persistent database objects, e.g., tables or stored procedures, via the SQL schema statements, [3] rather than the data stored within them, is considered to be part of a separate data definition language (DDL).
