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

We continue to use RDBMS, of course, for a lot of non-XML data, and one XML
site which we built ten years ago using Oracle still uses it for XML, but
our new (publishing) sites are all built using XML-native data stores.  This
has been for a number of clients.  We've also converted existing SGML/SQL
sites to XML with an XMLDB.  So you could put iFactory on your list if you
like, and some of our clients and their sites are listed here
(http://ifactory.com/publishing/index.php) also.
