Relational Database Design and XML

Asked by lcor in Design & Methodology, Databases Miscellaneous, Extensible Markup Language (XML)

Tags: ,

This is a relational database design/model  question.

Is there a robust way to design a database if there is data that consists of attributes and properties.  That is attribute property has no database depency on each other.
It was suggested to me to use the "symantic" design methodology of storing them as XML in the database.  But, isn't that dangerous for a relational database?

Any design help would be greatly appreciated.Start Free Trial
