Hi smit,
As you parse the xml data using feednormalizer gem. so you get
it’s result in hash. now running loop for that hash, you are able to
store xml data to your table. look below code, hope it’s solve your
problem.

@rss = FeedNormalizer::FeedNormalizer.parse open(feed_url)

if !@rss.entries.blank?
for rss in @rss.entries
@record = Model.new
@record.url = rss.url
Same way fill other attributes… in that table
@record.save
end
end

Thanks,
Priyanka P.

you could also use rexml

rexml is a gem which can be used to parse xml into the DB dynamically.
you have to first store the xml into an array and then use for loop and
insert function to store in mysql.
