Obviously, this method is slow and inefficient because it requires a lot of bandwidth on the communication line between the client and the database server before the requested file can be obtained

Embodiment Construction

[0019] In the following, the presently preferred embodiment of the invention is described with reference to the document Accessing an XML Database. It will be understood, however, that the invention is not limited to accessing XML files of such databases. Rather, the principles of the present invention are applicable to any type of file in any physical storage that accesses the database.

[0020] However, an important example is that of a service-oriented (software) architecture SOA's registry / repository. In SOA, various processing objects are available to users in the network as independent services that can be accessed in a standardized manner. Objects of SOA interoperate based on formal definitions independent of underlying hardware and software platforms and programming languages.

[0021] Managing SOA is a complex and difficult task. Managing an overview of the entire landscape of process objects, such as web services, some of which may change dynamically over time, is...

Abstract

Accessing files in a physical data storage. The system may include an application programming interface (API) layer, the API layer including an API which extends the class Java.io.file to include methods for file access requests. The system may further comprise at least one internal layer, the internal layer configured to transform a file access request into a database call. Finally, the system may include a storage layer with a database, the database being configured to access the physical storage in response to the database call.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a system and method for accessing files in physical data storage of a database. Background technique [0002] Typically, the files of a database are stored on physical data storage, such as a RAID system, where the files are arranged using some kind of file-folder structure. If a search for a desired file is to be performed, each folder and file contained in the physical memory needs to be opened and checked. This is a standard procedure performed by the operating system. [0003] Applications running on clients that need to access files must provide appropriate mechanisms to initiate this process. In the art, the files of the XML database can be stored and retrieved using the Workspace Version and Configuration Management Application Programming Interface (WVCM API) via the well-known programming language Java. A description of the WVCM API can be found, for example, at http: / / www.webdav.org / deltav / wvcm. Internally...
