davidgaya/existdb repository overview

⁠About this image

This is a eXist DB image build on top of official Java image (therefore based in debian jessie).

It is forked from dariah/exist⁠. I did this fork because I wanted an image built on top of official images and that leverages the image cache of docker.

⁠eXist XML Database

eXist is an open source NoSQL database built on XML technology. It is classified as both a NoSQL Document database and a native XML database. eXist provides XQuery and XSLT as its query and application programming languages.
