The range of database solutions specific to XML (suggested by Mike Champion)
grows larger if the documents aren't so large.  It is sometimes possible
with XML databases to represent large documents such as product catalogs as
collection(s) of many little documents (each representing one product or
product group).  Some of the XML-based solutions such as Apache Xindice work
well with this kind of document collection, but much less well with very
large documents.
