Optimizing XML Compression in XQueC

Authors: Andrei Arion, Angela Bonifati, Ioana Manolescu, and Andrea Pugliese

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8261, Structure-Based Compression of Complex Massive Data (2008)


Abstract
We present our approach to the problem of optimizing compression choices in the context of the XQueC compressed XML database system. In XQueC, data items are aggregated into containers, which are further grouped to be compressed together. This way, XQueC is able to exploit data commonalities and to perform query evaluation in the compressed domain, with the aim of improving both compression and querying performance. However, different compression algorithms have different performance and support different sets of operations in the compressed domain. Therefore, choosing how to group containers and which compression algorithm to apply to each group is a challenging issue. We address this problem through an appropriate cost model and a suitable blend of heuristics which, based on a given query workload, are capable of driving appropriate compression choices.

The XQueC Project: Compressing and Querying XML

Authors: Andrei Arion, Angela Bonifati, Ioana Manolescu, and Andrea Pugliese

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8261, Structure-Based Compression of Complex Massive Data (2008)


Abstract
We outline in this paper the main contributions of the XQueC project. XQueC, namely XQuery processor and Compressor, is the first compression tool to seamlessly allow XQuery queries in the compressed domain. It includes a set of data structures, that basically shred the XML document into suitable chunks linked to each other, thus disagreeing with the ’homomorphic’ principle so far adopted in previous XML compressors. According to this principle, the compressed document is homomorphic to the original document. Moreover, in order to avoid the time consumption due to compressing and decompressing intermediate query results, XQueC applies ‘lazy’ decompression by issuing the queries directly in the compressed domain.
