Your database can export a subset of its data in the JSON format. I have
seen people using Exhibit as a browsing interface for search result sets
that are a few hundred results in size.

In Exhibit 1.0, the database is implemented in this file
http://static.simile.mit.edu/exhibit/api/scripts/database.js
There are a few functions called loadTypes, loadProperties, and
loadItems, which are called from the _loadJSON method in this file
http://static.simile.mit.edu/exhibit/api/scripts/exhibit.js
In Exhibit 2.0, there is an importer for this:
