Assignment Object DataBase

An Object Database Management System (ODBMS) is software that operates object-oriented databases (OODBs). An ODBMS integrates database capabilities with object-oriented programming capabilities. It stores data in the form of objects consisting of attributes and behaviors. The main components of an ODBMS are language drivers, a query engine, a transaction engine, and a storage engine. ODBMSs have advantages like modeling complex objects and relationships but disadvantages like less flexible querying.

What is ODBMS & ODB?

ODBMS

●
It is a software that operates object-oriented databases.
●
ODMG defines ODBMS as “A DBMS that integrates database capabilities with object-
oriented programming language capabilities” .

ODB

●
It is a database model in which data is represented in the form of
OBJECTS.
HISTORY OF ODBMS

 ODBMS was introduced during the mid


1980’s and early 1990's.

 It was mainly used in Computer­Aided Design


(CAD) and Computer­Aided Software
Engineering (CASE) tools
What is Object?
 An object is a complex
data or entity, which
consists of State and
Behaviours. Object
 In C++ (an OOP language)
an object is defined as any
instantiation of a class
type data, Attr Rela Me Me
tion
or simply a variable
declared for a class type

data. tes s ds ges
Class = data structure + Methods

Data structure is a user defined data type which consists of


elementary data types.

●
e.g. in C++
●
struct student
●
{ varchar name,
●
int roll no,
●
float gpa
●
};
Function / Method

●
The set of instructions which defines the procedure to perform
an operation on the data structure.

Class

●
Class is a user defined “complex data type" including its
member data types (attributes) and operations.
OBJECT
Object (Amir)

Class (Student)
ODBMS COMPONENTS

Languag It provides interface between query


●

and underlying secondary data

e Drivers
storage.
●
e.g. C++, Java, .NET

Query ●
Responsible for interpreting &
executing query Commands.

Engine e.g. OQL, LINQ, JDOQL


●
Transactio ●
Ensures that a group of OQL
commands either fail or succeed in
n performing a transaction (unit of
Engine work).

Storage ●
Stores and retrieves data from
secondary storage. It also provides

Engine
methods to administer & control
information s.
Features of ODBMS

Persistence of data

Indexing

Transaction Management

Recovery
Advantages of ODBMS
Models and stores complex data (objects)
and complex relationships.

Data and methods are stored together and


managed together.

DBMS (Application) & Database both use


same object-oriented model and persistent
programming languages.

Fast retrieval of objects.


Disadvantages of ODBMS

Don’t have flexible query engine.

Complicated. Requires technical skills to


operate.

Only operations that are defined in class,


can be performed.

Not efficient for simple data and


relationships.
