Not to forget the power
of the XQuery update-extensions. You can read and write documents using this.
New versions of eXist (in
the subversion repository) support access-control, locking,concurrency-control
and clustering. If your system Crashes during a write operation, using files
your entire file is junk. With eXist it will repair itself using the journal.

Betreff: Re: Benefits of using
eXist with Cocoon, when XML is versioned in Subversion?
hi
I think that what you missed is the speed of retriving information about your
data collection. think of listing the content of a title tag of many small xml
files at filesystem with cocoon xpathdirectory generator, It is a very time
consuming process on file system but with exist it is very fast. also eXist
lets you to use Xquery which is the standard way of retriving data from xml
data collections.
Of course if you dont need any such data processing and only access individual
files you dont need a database like exist and can use filesystem.

Hello:
My website content is in XML and version controlled in Subversion.
I want to use Cocoon to publish HTML and PDF, etc. for all the usual
reasons.
I see that eXist is pre-integrated with Cocoon; I could import my
documents into eXist and use that.
I can still version the source by exporting from eXist -> file system
and "svn commit"
I am trying to get a handle on what exactly will the benefits be using
eXist rather than just the file system.
Can anyone help?
My newbie guess is that it boils down to eXist providing certain things
that otherwise would have to be programmed directly in the cocoon sitemap.
For example: directory generator, lucene/full text search
So.. isn't that just moving some logic from the sitemap into eXist
configuration files? What am I missing?
Thanks!!
