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).

Object-Oriented Application Development Using the Caché Postrelational Database by W. Kirsten, M. Ihringer, M. Kühn, B. Röhrig, A.S. Rudd 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.
Building Scalable Database Applications: Object-Oriented Design, Architectures and Implementations (Addison-Wesley Object Technology Series) by Peter Heinckiens Average Customer Review: based on 6 reviews. Customer Review: I think some of the other reviewers might forget this book is at the time of this review writing is 5 years old. At the time of .NET's official non beta release it was just over 3 years old. Truly, this book is as relevant today as it was when it was written. Perhaps some of the concepts of persistence are missed by the first reviewe...
Learn Visual dBasic Programming: A Hands-on Guide to Object Oriented Database Programming by Martin L. Rinehart Average Customer Review: based on 6 reviews. Customer Review: Not the polished text one would expect from the publisher, but its superficial treatment of the subject is fine for the ex-dBase programmer exploring some of the post-III/IV features of dBase.
Data Access Patterns: Database Interactions in Object-Oriented Applications (paperback) (Software Patterns) by Clifton Nock Average Customer Review: based on 7 reviews. Customer Review: I have to disagree with the previous review. I will try to explain why I think 'b88zhou' review is inadequate after presenting my overview of this book. After reading numerous pattern books, it is nice to see a pattern book with very good organization. Each pattern is presented with the following subsections. * Description * Context ...
