The Simi-structure Extensible Markup Language (XML) databases become more popular and more efficient to exchange data and information. Although traditional models such as relational database a long time ago still widely used in most of databases sectors, the XML is more flexible and easy for exchange and share data. Consequently, this paper proposes a middleware relational storage for converting between XML and relational databases, the technique uses path-based relational storage approach and

Likewise, the technique applies 1-index method to reduce size of the stored data. Moreover, the paper conducts a series of experiments to evaluate the performance of the proposed technique.
