Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel database design structure that can deal with all the aspects of the complexity of data that has to be managed, using the concepts of defining objects in object oriented programming (OOP). As well, we create a set of procedures in database system that allows us to manage all type of data, without knowing the structure of the database. The creation of the database structure, also the mechanism of inserting and retrieval the information is made by using a metadata set of information.

The major benefit of the proposed approach is that we can use a relational database management system (RDBMS), that can assure ACID (atomicity, consistency, isolation and durability) principles, low cost management and quick development based on metadata structure. The main advantages of our approach comparing with NoSQL database system is that we preserve ACID properties of the information and comparing with NewSQL is that the cost of the projection of database structure and management of the system is much lower.

Our proposed system is functional and can manage very large amount of data from heterogenic sources that can be managed by companies without a lot of know-how.
