Object-oriented database management system (OODBMS) definition
When you integrate database capabilities with object
programming language capabilities, the result is an object-oriented database
management system or ODBMS¹. An ODBMS makes database objects appear as
programming language objects in one or more existing programming languages.
Object database management systems extend the object programming language with
transparently persistent data, concurrency control, data recovery, associative
queries, and other database capabilities.
Also: In September 2007, the Object Database Technology Working Group of the
Object Management Group (OMG) issued a white paper that introduced the concept
of an "object calculus" for ODBMSs that is analogous to "relational calculus" in
RDBMSs:
Next Generation Object Database Standardization (new
window).
¹ Other initialisms used for object database management systems include:
OODBMS,
ODB,
OODB, OODMS, and ODMS. They are also called "object-oriented database
systems."

Object-Oriented Database Design Clearly Explained by Jan L. Harrington Average Customer Review: based on 7 reviews. Customer Review: "Object Oriented Database Design" is a book for beginners and, as far as I have been able to investigate, it is a perfect walkthrough along the background of object structures. Figures, exemples, syntax of codes and clear explanations lead the learner through theory towards practice. Exemples are often very nice.
