This paper proposes a new architecture for publishing relational data as XML documents. The architecture allows users to access relational databases via XML schema which is transformed from the underlying relational database schema. XML queries can be issued directly against the XML schema and then be translated into corresponding SQL queries. The SQL query results are converted into XML documents and returned to users. In the paper, the architecture and its components are presented.
