Re: [Exist-development] Metadata in eXist

[Patrick B. <pat...@jo...>]

It looks like there is a lot of thought around using key/value pairs. What
value does key/value provide over using a stored XML (similar to MarkLogic)?
Because on the inverse of that, I can see a lot of value in being able to
store more complex structures, as they can be simple key/value pairs at
their simplest and more complex for users who have that need.

Also, which method is going to be easier to index with lucene?


Cheers,

Patrick
