RE: [xml-dev] Companies that have switched from RDBMS to pure XML database?


People don't "switch" from one technology to another. They adopt a new
technology alongside the old, and they coexist for decades, running
different applications.

Most of the applications that I have seen using XML databases would never
have been implemented in an RDBMS. They might previously have used free text
databases, document management systems, operating system filestore, in some
cases object databases.
