Overview:

Semi-structured data is becoming commonplace with examples such as XML, Bioinformatics suffix-trees, scientific computing data, and even generic directory-file hierarchies. Such semi-structured data must be stored on mass storage devices for persistence as well as cost-efficiency. Current approaches, which map semi-structured data to relational databases or simply use flat files, incur a mismatch between the structure of the data and the underlying storage device (disk drive). This paper explores alternate native strategies for storing semi-structured data that match its access characteristics to those of disk drives, using XML data as a concrete case study.
