Object-Oriented DBMS

The increase emphasis on process integration is the driving force of object-oriented DBMS application. Examples Advanced office automation systems use object-

oriented database systems to handle hypermedia data. Hospital patient care tracking systems use object-

oriented database technologies for ease of use

All of these applications are characterized by having to manage complex, highly interrelated information, which is strength of object-oriented database systems.

Characteristics of OO databases

It combine OO programming with data OO database technology to integrate various system development applications. Applications of an OODBMS Object identification Object state definition Object relationships identification Object behaviour identification Object classification


DBSQL 10-8

Object-Oriented components and concepts

OODBMS combines the following:

Many of the features of the OO programming model

Traditional DBMS facilities


DBSQL 10-9

Comparison of OODBMS and RDBMS

OO database systems have been relatively slow to be adopted Relational data models and systems have been very successful for the development of databases used by traditional business applications OO techniques are sometimes favoured in database applications because the OO model is semantically much richer than the earlier data models, thus a database based on the OO model is more capable of storing data the accurately reflects ‘ real world’ information


DBSQL 10-10

Problems with OO model

OO database is that database are usually not designed to solve specific problems OO technology and its use of encapsulation can often limit its flexibility OO databases is that a large proportion of organizations do not currently deal with the complex data types for which OO technology is ideally suited, and therefore they do not require complex data processing


DBSQL 10-11

Object-Relational DBMS

Is good for storing and retrieving complex data because it supports complex data types and relationships, multimedia data, inheritance, etc. The object-relational technology, that is, relational technology extended with new capabilities, such as triggers, methods, user defined types, etc., presents two advantages compared with object databases


DBSQL 10-12

Object-Relational Model

It aims to address some of the problems of pure OO technology such as the poor support for ad hoc query languages, and open database technology, and provide better support for existing relational products, by extending the relational model to incorporate the key features of object-orientation. A major addition to the relational model is the introduction of a stronger type system to enable the use of complex data types, which still allow the relational model to be preserved


DBSQL 10-13

Advantages of ORDBMS

Resolves many of known weaknesses of RDBMSReuse and sharingPreserves significant body of knowledge and experience gone into developing

relational applications


DBSQL 10-14

Disadvantages of ORDMBS

ComplexityIncreased costsProponents of relational approach believe simplicity and purity of relational model are lostSome believe RDBMS is being extended for what will be a minority of applicationOO purists not attracted by extensions either.SQL now extremely complex.
