Iridium Satellite Collision in Space
You might have seen the recent news reports about the collision between U.S. and Russian communication satellites. The U.S. satellite was one of the Iridium satellites.

If you have existing data, this architecture is also a great way to use XML to take advantage of it. Your existing data is protected from direct Internet access and data from multiple existing sources can be mapped to the object database.

Using XML and object databases
The bottom line is that the object database in this architecture provides high-speed XML access while protecting your existing data sources.

The object model used by the object database is a perfect match for XML. For an example of an XML model, see complex data (new window).

You will also find that many ODBMS vendors provide XML capabilities.

XML may be presented at the application level above the object database and used by the web or application server. XML may also be presented above the web or application server. It depends on the products you might use.
