  1. Object oriented databases By Claudia Buder Programming

  2. Content • About OODB • Transparent persistence • Lack of impedance mismatch • How to access data • Database application • Navigation with an object database • ODB using architectures • When an ODBMS should be used

  3. About object oriented databases • Integration of database capabilities with object programming language capabilities • makes database objects appear as programming language objects • Most used query language OQL • Uses also OOA and OOD

  4. Transparent persistence

  5. Lack of impedance mismatch

  6. Data access: e.g. Java import org.odmg.*; import java.util.Collection; Implementation impl = new com.vendor.odmg.Implementation(); Database db = impl.newDatabase(); Transaction txn = impl.newTransaction(); try { db.open("addressDB", Database.OPEN_READ_WRITE); txn.begin(); // perform query OQLQuery query = new OQLQuery( "select x from Person x where x.name = \"Doug Barry\""); Collection result = (Collection) query.execute(); Iterator iter = result.iterator(); // iterate over the results while ( iter.hasNext() ) { Person person = (Person) iter.next(); // do some addition processing on the person (now shown) // now traverse to the address object and update its value person.address.street = "13504 4th Avenue South"; } txn.commit(); db.close(); } //exception handling would go here ...

  7. Database application • Data collection applications • Information analysis applications • Applications handling BLOBs

  8. Navigation with an object database

  9. ODB using architectures • Stand-alone architecture • Architecture with existing data sources

  10. When an ODBMS should be used • Business need • High performance • Complex data • Reduction of development and maintenance costs
