Abstract
Although the DDI standard is expressed in XML, many institutions have a requirement or preference to use relational databases (eg. Access, MySQL, Oracle, Postgres) in their applications. This may be because of integration with existing applications, expertise at the institute, or other reasons. This workshop will discuss how to model DDI in a relational database, and the pros/cons of using this approach for application development. Interoperability with other applications, including those based on XML databases, and long term management of applications (including support for multiple versions of DDI) will also be discussed. Prior knowledge of relational databases and SQL is recommended but not required.
