One model to reduce development and maintenance costs
Because an ODBMS stores exactly the same object model that is used at the
application level, both development and maintenance costs can be reduced. With
an ODBMS, there is no need to:
Develop two data models: an object model in the
application and a relational model stored in the database. This is not
needed because an ODBMS uses the same object model as the application.
Maintain two data models. An ODBMS eliminates the
maintenance cost of keeping the to data models synchronized.
Develop mapping between the relational and the object
models. This is not needed because an ODBMS uses the same object model
as the application.
Maintain the mapping between the relational and object
models. An ODBMS eliminates the maintenance cost of maintaining the
mapping whenever there is a change to the object or relational model.
The result is that for a development team of six to seven, it is possible to
have a team with one less person when using an ODBMS. It is typical when
developing an object application with a RDBMS that one person is in charge of
keeping the relational model synchronized with an object model and the mapping
code. That person would not be needed in an ODBMS development project.

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.
