20.3. Methodology
Our methodology is based on XMach-1 (Böhme and Rahm 2001). That benchmark requires a Web-based application to model a general XML data management system. Based on the Web application, a number of performance measurements are taken: database population and scaling, document generation by queries, data manipulation operations, and operation mix. The methodology has two phases. The first phase is to explore the functionality of an XML-enabled database in handling XML documents. The second phase is to evaluate the performance of the XML-related libraries or gateway supported by the XML-enabled database.
Our methodology for measuring the performance of the two databases being tested (the XML-enabled database and the native XML database) ...
