Abstract: The object-oriented paradigm has given rise to a new approach to database systems. Object database management systems combine the strength of the object-oriented paradigm with the speed gained from the close integration of the storage and execution model. This introductory db4o tutorial explains what an object database is, how it differs from relational database technology, and how it can dramatically improve certain object-oriented application software. The basic db4o functions of storing, retrieving, updating and deleting objects are covered with examples that demonstrate the ease of integrating db4o into an application. The new native query interface available in db4o version 5.0 is used for the query examples. Additional topics covered include transactions, client server computing, structured objects, inheritance, and configuration and maintenance of the db4o system. The tutorial will include exercises so that the students can apply the concepts covered and get feedback on their level of understanding.
