My go-to for parsing XML into another format or for creating SQL-ready data would be an XSLT/Python combo. But if you need search, Drupal or Blacklight, as suggested by Eric and Brent, would give you lots of help handling queries. Drupal also supports Solr through its Search API.

Hi all,

We're purchasing an XML dataset for the historical NY Times and I am curious about any suggestions to quickly build a web app to search and display those records for end users.
