How to Compare Two DataSources

I have a series of test steps.
1. DataSource using a JDBC connection to our web server to pull a known set of "good data".
2. Execute a call to a service.
3. Using the response of the service call - created an XML DataSource. (to see what the service is returning)
4. ...

The "known set of good data" varies from run to run so I can't hardcode values.

How do I compare the two data sources? I need to look not only for valid data but also the absence of data in either set when compared to the other.

Please advise.
Thanks in advance.
