Abstract
Object-oriented databases (OODBs) are believed to more naturally reflect the behavior and organization of complex application domains. The schema consists of a collection of classes, organized into hierarchies which nicely organize abstractions over the domain. Objects are created as instances of classes, encapsulating data and interpretation of data together. An important characteristic is the support for evolutionary programming, and so that existing programs may be extended with new classes without affecting other parts of the system.
