Nowadays,.XML.has.become.the.standard.for.representing.and.exchanging.data.over.the.Web.and. several approaches have been proposed for efficiently managing, storing, querying and representing XML.data.originating.from.diverse.and.often.heterogeneous.sources..The.Lightweight.Directory.Access.Protocol.is.a.promising.technology.for.XML.data.storage.and.retrieval.since.it.facilitates.access. to.information.organized.under.a.variety.of.frameworks.and.applications..As.an.open,.vendor-neutral.standard,.LDAP.provides.an.extendable.architecture.for.centralized.storage.and.management.of. information.that.needs.to.be.available.for.today’s.distributed.systems.and.services..The.similarities. between.XML.and.LDAP.data.representation.have.led.to.the.idea.of.processing.XML.data.within.the. LDAP.framework..This.chapter.focuses.on.the.topic.of.LDAP.and.XML.integration.with.emphasis.on. the.storage.and.retrieval.approaches.implemented.so.far..Moreover,.the.chapter.includes.an.overview. and.survey.of.the.theoretical.background.and.the.adopted.practices.as.realized.in.the.most.popular. and.emerging.frameworks.which.tune.XML.and.LDAP.
