You might have seen the recent news reports about the collision between U.S. and Russian communication satellites. The U.S. satellite was one of the Iridium satellites. What wasn’t reported and you probably don’t know is that an object database management system (ODBMS) is an important part of the Iridium system. Even though ODBMSs are a [...]

I am now also posting on the Cutter Blog. My initial posting is (The Acronym) SOA is (Perhaps) Dead (at Some Companies); Long Live Services. It is a response to Anne Thomas Manes’ SOA is Dead; Long Live Services on her blog at the Burton Group.

The typical definition of an atomic task or process is one that cannot be decomposed further. This is vague and subject to interpretation. The Decomposition Matrix on this site uses a specific definition: A task (for business process diagrams) or a process (for data flow diagrams) is atomic if every input relates to every output [...]

My last posting referenced the criteria for a well-formed business process diagram mentioned in Business Process Driven SOA using BPMN and BPEL by Matjaz B. Juric and Kapil Pant. I am going to expand on their criteria to create a more comprehensive definition of a well-formed business process diagram.
To start, here are three criteria from [...]

I recently received two new books on business process modeling. Both books looked interesting because they had great titles. As it turns out, one book is great and the other not so good.
The not so good book is Business Process Driven SOA using BPMN and BPEL by Matjaz B. Juric and Kapil Pant. There are [...]

The Design Decomposition Blog is written by Doug Barry.
Transparent persistence in object database products refers to the
ability to directly manipulate data stored in a database using an object programming language.
This is in contrast to a database sub-language used by embedded SQL or a call
interface used by ODBC or JDBC. Using an object database product means that you have higher
performance and less code to write.
With transparent persistence, the manipulation
and traversal of persistent objects is performed directly by the object
programming language in the same manner as in-memory, non-persistent objects.
This is achieved through the use of intelligent caching as this animation shows.
For coding examples, see how
to access data in an object database. Also see caching for object
database management systems (new window).
There are nearly 400 pages of articles on this site with over 50 pages on object-oriented database management systems.

The Object Data Standard: ODMG 3.0 (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Data Management Systems) by R. G. Cattell, Douglas K. Barry, Mark Berler, Jeff Eastman, David Jordan, Craig Russell, Olaf Schadow, Torsten Stanienda, Fernando Velez Average Customer Review: based on 2 reviews. Customer Review: A well-written, concise reference covering a diverse range of topics that will be of interest to all who know the frustration of cramming complex OO systems into relational tables.

Object Databases in Practice by Akmal B. Chaudhri, Mary Loomis, Hewlett-Packard Professional Books Average Customer Review: based on 1 review. Customer Review: I found it fair and product-independent 18 user cases of Object Database. Some of user cases are not enough new, but they refers why they decided to use Object Database instead of common Relational Databases. Some even refers why they adopted a certain product of Object Database. Be careful this is not a introduction of Object Databas...
Object-Oriented Application Development Using the Cache Postrelational Database by Wolfgang Kirsten, Michael Ihringer, Peter Schulte Average Customer Review: based on 7 reviews. Customer Review: Have gotten extensive use out of this book from my time as a cache developer. Good guide for a programmer who's new to cache, and then later on as a reference guide for an intermediate to experienced developer. Everyone in the dev team got some use out of this as a reference - good to have in the team.
