A research team add object-oriented concepts to relational database. Early commercial products appeared in mid-1990s. IBM, Oracle and some other companies developed early products like Illustra and UniSQL and so on. [8] The object-relational database (ORD) is a combination of object database and relational database (RDB). It inherits advantages from both database mod- els like a middle man.

In this application domain, the database must provide fast access to rather complex data, easy integration into an ever evolving application code, and support massive concurrent access from potentially millions of consumers. Choosing a database for such a system and the reasons this choice serve as the subject of this paper. We have implemented Fraunhofer FOKUS Open IPTV Ecosystem with two database systems: The Versant Object Database supports a native object-oriented data model which allows managing application objects directly in the database. Oracle’s MySQL, by contrast, a popular open source relational database, requires an object-to-relational mapping layer to manage the application objects in the relational data model. Analyzing the results of a number of IPTV related benchmark use cases should help the reader to evaluate the pros and cons of each of these two database systems in such an environment.

  • Java Object Persistence: State of the Union
    March 4, 2008 Java Object Persistence: State of the Union In this virtual panel, the editors of InfoQ.com (Floyd Marinescu) and ODBMS.org (Roberto V. Zicari) asked a group of leading persistence solution architects their views on the current state of the union in persistence in the Java community. Panelists: - Mike Keith: EJB co-spec lead, main architect of Oracle Toplink ORM -Ted Neward: Independent consultant, often blogging on ORM and persistence topics - Carl Rosenberger: lead architect of db4objects, open source embeddable object database - Craig Russell: Formerly the spec lead of Java Data Objects (JDO) JSR, architect of entity bean engine in Sun’s appservers prior to Glassfish Q1: Do we still have an "impedance mismatch problem"? Mike Keith: As long as an object model is being used to read from and write to a relational data model then the impedance mismatch will exist. It becomes a problem when there are no strategies, technologies or tools to help overcome the mismatch, or when the mismatch results in a convoluted design or prohibitively bad performance. There will always be some scenarios that lead to this situation simply because of the nature of the mismatch. Technologies and tools can help a great deal, and do meet the needs of the vast majority of applications, but they can’t turn water into wine. Ted Neward: Absolutely. So long as we have different 'shapes' to data in their transient and durable forms—such as the current dilemma where we try to take transient data in the shape of objects and store it to a relational durable data store—we will have an impedance mismatch problem.

    Object-relational mapping Source http://www.datanucleus.org/ Object-relational impedance mismatch • The object-relational impedance mismatch is a set of conceptual and technical difficulties that are often encountered when a RDBMS is being used by a program written in an object-oriented programming language or style. 2 Data type differences • A major mismatch between existing relational and OO languages is the type system differences. • The relational model strictly prohibits by-reference attributes (or pointers), whereas OO languages embrace and expect by-reference behavior. • Scalar types and their operator semantics are also very often subtly to vastly different between the models, causing problems in mapping. • For example, most SQL systems support string types with varying collations and constrained maximum lengths, while most OO languages consider collation only as an argument to sort routines and strings are intrinsically sized to available memory 3 Structural and integrity differences • In OO languages, objects can be composed of other objects—often to a high degree—or specialize from a more general definition. This may make the mapping to relational schemas less straightforward. • This is because relational data tends to be represented in a named set of global, unnested relation variables. 4 Manipulative differences • The relational model has an intrinsic, relatively small and well defined set of primitive operators for usage in the query and manipulation of data, whereas OO languages generally handle query and manipulation through custom-built or lower-level physical access path specific imperative operations 5 Transactional differences • Relational database transactions, as the smallest unit of work performed by databases, are much larger than any operations performed by classes in OO languages.

  • Performance Evaluation of Java Object-Relational Mapping Tools
    PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF JAVA OBJECT-RELATIONAL MAPPING TOOLS by HASEEB YOUSAF (Under the Direction of John A. Miller) ABSTRACT In the modern era of enterprise Web technology, there is strong competition growing between different vendors for highly scalable and reliable Web application frameworks. In designing these Web applications, the companies need some storage mechanism through which they manipulate the data efficiently. The traditional database management systems provide this functionality but require a complete knowledge of the SQL. Nowadays, there are many Object- Relational Mapping (ORM) persistent stores available, which make the application developer job easier by providing the same functionality as that of a traditional database. The Java language also provides ORM tools such as Hibernate, EclipseLink that provide the same functionality. Similarly, we have created a lightweight persistent tool named GlycoVault, which provides similar functionality. This study is focused on comparing different Java ORM tools including GlycoVault. The study provides information about the tools’ functionalities and also compares the results of several queries we have designed to test their performance. INDEX WORDS: Persistent, ORM, Hibernate, GlycoVault, Ebean, EclipseLink, OpenJPA, database, SQL, cache, performance.
