ABSTRACT

In the real world extracting information entirely depends up on the type of the information, the type of the structures used to maintain the information and the type of the application programs used. Most commonly available information is in the form of text; most of the systems use relational database systems to maintain text information. Another technology used to maintain the text information is the XML technology. The application performance with respect to response time is an important criterion for Internet-based services. The time factor plays a main role for the end user to survive in severe applications. Getting information from the xml data sets is more efficient than the relational data sets. In this paper we have studied different types of XML and RDB(Relational Data Base) data sets and compared them with respect to access time in J2EE system. The analyses has been made purely in J2EE environment and we have been used the technology JDBC to extract data from relational data sets and Java XML parsers to parse and extract the xml data sets.
