Inhaltsangabe

If you or your company is heavily invested in a relational database system, someone somewhere has probably told you that you should consider going object-oriented whatever that means. Although object orientation is well understood and accepted in application development, its role in database systems is just beginning to emerge. The lack of an accepted standard only adds to the uncertainty. This book will help you make sense of the conflicting theories and vendor claims about object-oriented database, systems. Here you will find : background on the concepts behind the object-oriented paradigm ; coverage of the two methods for introducing objects into a database environment : the pure object-oriented approach and a hybrid object-relational approach ; an in-depth discussion of designing databases for either object-oriented approach ; a summary of the proposed standard for pure-object databases ; database design case studies with comparisons to relational designs to help you understand the implications of switching from a relational system to on object-oriented system ; design implementation examples using Oracle and Jasmine.
