Abstract
Metadata can be provided to multiple processing units of a database system by using local storages respectively provided for the processing units, such that a local storage is accessible only to its respective processing unit. As a result, processing units can access metadata when needed (e.g., when needed to process a database request at runtime) without having to access a source external to the database system. In addition, metadata (e.g., an XML object, XML schema, XSLT stylesheets, XQuery modules) can be provided using a database request or command, for example, by using a register statement.
