Howdy all!
I must say first off that I am very excited about JAXB! I love the ability
to turn XML elements into objects.. but I have a concern:
I am about to undertake the building of a order entry system that takes
orders for under 50 customers and will store thousands of orders. This might
not seem like much data, but I am still worried that reading in all of the
data at startup and then storing it all as objects might be an unreasonable
overhead.
It seems to me that one advantage to a database is the ability to store as
much data as you want without having to load it into memory and only loading
part of it when you need to execute a query..
Is there a way to make this a bit easier in JAXB or should I consider an XML
Database?
Thanks for any advice!
Rob
