A data mapping table defines the
mapping of XML data to relational
data for a specific element in a Representational State Transfer (REST)
or
an XML resource. The elements are mapped to relational tables and
the element
attributes are mapped to relational table columns.
About this task
A data mapping table must reference a data mapping
template for accessing
the mappings between the XML elements and relational table columns
that are
defined in the template. A data mapping table can be associated with
several
data mapping templates, where each template has a different mapping
of the
XML elements to the relational table columns.
