As publishers consider revamping their online publishing infrastructures, they are increasingly looking to new technologies like XML databases, RDF triple stores and XML-aware fulltext indexing engines. Hear how publishers are using Mark Logic Server, Exist, Jens and Lucene/Solr in order to provide a more flexible and robust infrastructure for their future online publishing needs.
