Are you talking about XML based database ?
Any particular reason to store in an XML file rather than on RDBMS or
NO-SQL?

Does he know about this ? ;-)

You can have a REST API (Axis2 provides it automatically) like below
axis2/PersonService/add?surename=Foo&firstName=ddd&dateOfbirth=somedata
Then you can have a simple service like below:
class MyService {
void addPerson(String surename, String firstName, String dataOfBirth){
updateXML()
}
}
have a look at :
