Riassunto

Object-Relational Databases (ORDBMS) are the "next great wave" of database technology, offering powerful opportunities to enhance flexibility, functionality, and performance. This book explains ORDBMS technology in depth, and presents a start-to-finish design and implementation methodology for ORDBMS development. In Part I, Paul Brown reviews the key features and functionality built into today's object-relational databases. Brown introduces the ORDBMS data model, query language, the basics of ORDBMS extensibility, relationships between the ORDBMS and middleware, and, finally, key APIs used to integrate an ORDBMS with other components of an enterprise information system. In Part II, Brown shows how to use these features and concepts to build a complete, working system. Using a complete e-commerce case study, he describes a semi-formal methodological road map for optimizing the effectiveness of ORDBMS systems. Along the way, Brown also covers database extensibility, DataBlades, and a variety of crucial related issues, including physical data management in ORDBMS environments; using Java to create UDTs and UDRs; ORDBMS system catalogs; and more. All sample code is included on the accompanying CD-ROM.

Foreword by Professor Michael Stonebraker

Object-Relational Databases (ORDBMS) are the "next great wave" of database technology, offering powerful opportunities to enhance flexibility, functionality, performance, and enterprise integration. In this book, Informix database architect Paul Brown explains ORDBMS technology in depth, and introduces a start-to-finish design and implementation methodology for ORDBMS development. Brown covers all this, and more:

• Key features and characteristics of today's leading object-relational databases
• ORDBMS data models, schema, queries, data types, functions, and routines
• The ORDBMS as middleware: integrating the entire enterprise
• DataBlade modules: extending ORDBMS functionality creatively
• Using Java to create UDTs and UDRs

Object-Relational Database Development brings key features, techniques, and methodologies to life through a start-to-finish e-commerce case study that demonstrates the compelling advantages of ORDBMS technology. Whether you're a database programmer or decision-maker, you won't find a more realistic, insightful guide to ORDBMS development.

CD-ROM INCLUDED

The accompanying CD-ROM contains complete, ready-to-run source code, including a start-to-finish object-relational database application.
