This isn't a book about the Object Data Standard; it's the complete,fully authoritative version of the standard itself, presented by theresearchers who developed it. This book provides all the detailscomprising ODMG 3.0, making the latest version of the specificationthe most mature and most flexible yet.When it comes to storing objects in databases, ODMG 3.0 is astandard with which you need to be familiar-whether you design,develop, or implement object database products, object-to-relationaldatabase mapping products, or applications based on these products.

This revised standard for object database management systems serves as a crucial guide to emerging trends in object-oriented and database technology. It reflects a significant industry consensus on component technology for database products and languages, facilitating the widespread adoption of object database technology. ODMG 2.0 aims to achieve what SQL did for relational databases by ensuring application portability across various platforms and products. The standard seeks to merge programming languages with database systems into a unified environment, enhancing performance and enabling more robust representations for complex database applications. ODMG 2.0 builds on related efforts from ANSI SQL92 and the OMG Object Model and Interface Definition Language. Key enhancements include a new binding for Sun's Java programming language that merges the safety and pure object orientation of Smalltalk with the robust data and syntax of C++, along with security and automatic program transfer capabilities over the Internet. Additionally, the ODMG object model has been thoroughly rewritten and expanded to provide a detailed specification of object database semantics across multiple programming languages. A standard external form for data and data schema has also been established to facilitate data interchange between databases, alongside updates to the chapters on C++, Smalltalk, and Object Query Language.
