In-process object-oriented database design for .NET

Published: 20 October 2005 Publication History

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the development of an in-process Object-Oriented Database (OODB) design for the .NET platform. Using an OODB design, one simple function call is needed to save, search, delete, or update .NET objects. Also little database setup is required, as opposed to defining the system's schema in relational database systems. In order to validate the efficiency of in-process OODB design, an experiment was conducted involving a relational database system. The results show that the in-process OODB design outperforms Microsoft SQL Server (running locally) for the queries based on the primary key fields.
