I have some statistical data residing on z/OS that I would like to be able
to load to a relational database. The relational database engine depends upon
the user's environment/choice. DB2, SQL Server, MS ACCESS, to name three.
From the research I am doing, it looks like all three understand XML data. I
believe it is possible to define the tables using XML schema definitions, and
load the data into the tables using XML data definitions that match the schema.
What I'd like to know is 1) is the above true? I can use XML and
accomplish both table definitions and table loading. And 2) what kind of
gotcha's are there in accomplishing this? Any recommendations for resources
for XML 'stuff' would be appreciated. Thanks,
