DataDirect XQuery simplifies XML and relational data integration

has announced the release of DataDirect XQuery, the first embeddable component for XQuery that is modeled after the XQuery API for Java (XQJ).

Using DataDirect XQuery simplifies the programming task significantly and means that your applications can run on any Java platform, accessing data from the major relational databases, using any Web server or application server, or using no server at all.

DataDirect XQuery performs well even when your query creates large XML results.

DataDirect XQuery supports all major relational databases, including Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server 2000, IBM DB2, and Sybase, on any Java platform, allowing developers to query XML, relational databases, or a combination of the two.

Query results can be used for XML-based data exchange, XML-driven Web sites, and other applications that require or leverage the power of XML.

DataDirect XQuery provides IT professionals with a highly productive, powerful, simple, and standards-based approach to XML and relational data integration.

It optimizes and mediates query performance when accessing relational data.For example, XQuery code is converted to SQL statements which are executed on the database server - thus providing the best performance possible.

Developers can a free trial of DataDirect XQuery.
