Can xml be used as a database?..

Answer / Krishna Mohan Mani Tiwari

While XML can store data in a hierarchical format, it is not designed to function as a traditional relational database. However, some applications use XML combined with XSLT and XQuery for data manipulation. Other times, they use XML in conjunction with databases like SQL Server or Oracle, where the database stores XML as BLOB (Binary Large OBject) data.
