Marklogic Architecture

 Database

A MarkLogic server database acts as an abstraction layer between the forests and the HTTP, WebDAV, or XDBC servers. A database consists of data forests that are set up on hosts in the same cluster but not necessarily in the same group. It allows a set of one or more forests to appear as a single adjacent set of content for research purposes. 

• Application Server (HTTP / XDBC / ODBC / WebDAV) 
• Database (Content / Modules / Schema / Triggers / Security)
• Forest 
• Stand (In Memory / On Disk)
• List Cache | Compressed Tree Cache | Expanded Tree Cache
