The document discusses object-oriented databases and object-relational databases. Object-oriented databases excel at representing complex relationships between objects, while object-relational databases aim to enhance traditional relational databases by incorporating object-oriented concepts. The choice between them depends on the specific application needs.

INTRODUCTION

These divergent approaches reflect in how they handle relationships,


with OODBs excelling in representing intricate connections between
objects, while ORDBs enhance traditional relational databases by
incorporating certain object-oriented features. The choice between
them hinges on specific application needs, determining whether a
more purist object-oriented model or a hybrid solution integrating
object-oriented concepts with relational databases is more suitable.
Object-Oriented Database (OODB)
Within an object-oriented database, information is portrayed
through objects, mirroring the modeling principles of
object-oriented programming languages. These objects serve
as comprehensive units, encapsulating both data and the
corresponding operations.
Encapsulation: Encapsulation is the bundling of data (attributes) and the
methods (procedures or functions) that operate on that data into a single
unit known as an object.

Inheritance: Inheritance is a mechanism that allows a new class (subclass


or derived class) to inherit properties and behaviors (attributes and
methods) from an existing class (base class or parent class).

Complex Relationships: Object-Oriented Database (OODB) excels in


representing intricate relationships between objects, allowing for the
modeling of complex data structures and dependencies.

Query Language: A language used in OODBs for querying and


manipulating object-oriented databases.
Object-Relational Database (ORDB)

Object-relational databases, on the other hand, aim to enhance


traditional relational databases by incorporating some aspects of the
object-oriented model. They extend the relational model to handle
complex data types and relationships more effectively.
Key features of ORDB

Complex Data Types: ORDBs support complex data types, such as


arrays, nested tables, and user-defined types, allowing for more
flexibility in representing data.
Inheritance and Polymorphism: Some ORDBs introduce features like
inheritance and polymorphism, bringing object-oriented concepts into
the relational model.
Structured Query Language (SQL): ORDBs still primarily use SQL for
querying, making them familiar to developers already accustomed to
relational databases.
Compatibility: ORDBs maintain compatibility with existing relational
databases, enabling a smoother transition for applications with
established relational data.
