Object Oriented Database

Having been involved in developing many RDBMS based applications over the years, I was quite interested in researching into Object Oriented Databases and happened to stumble upon Perst.

I must say I was quite impressed, and hopefully the future of databases will follow this kind of example in the future. Another bonus is the fact the source code is also provided.

Lets hope that the new Sql Server(Yukon) has some object oriented features to aid in future .NET database applications.

  • PERST is getting better every day. It's open source and free. I've used it on large, complex databases and it holds up fairly well. There are still some things that need refinement (currently Xml Import and Backup).

  • Anybody got experience with running PERST to handle a database to be shared by multiple processes (not many, but more than one)?
