Major Features of Object Relational DBMS (ORDBMS)
List the major features of ORDBMS / What are the important features of ORDBMS? / Apart from features of RDBMS, what are the other Object oriented features supported by ORDBMS?
Major Features
of ORDBMS
User-defined abstract
data types (ADTs) - ADTs allow new data types with
structures suited to particular applications to be defined.
User-defined routines –
these provide the means for writing customized server functions that have much
of the power and functionality expressible in C.
Inheritance -
inheritance of user defined types is supported to derive new sub-types or
sub-classes which would therefore inherit all attributes and methods from the
parent type.
Encapsulation -
encapsulation is a language mechanism for restricting access to some of the
object's components.
Complex objects
including first normal form objects.
Object Identity –
OIDs are used to identify objects.
Large objects support -
these are disk-based objects that have the functionality of random access
files. ADTs use them to store any data that does not fit into a table row.
Extensible and flexible
indexing - R-tree or Generalized Search Tree (GiST)
indexing for multi-dimensional data enables fast searching of particular ADTs
in a table.
