Text Dominated Databases, Theory Practice and Experience
Summary: Advocates treating large, structured text corpora as primary databases—text DBs are hierarchical/grammar-described, often append‑only, and demand search/edit primitives and query models distinct from relational ones. Uses OED experience to evaluate SGML, SFQL mappings, and integration challenges for optimization, consistency and DBMS transparency. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
