- OTS: Open Team Server provides software project lifecycle management with db4o: Our dVP Uwe Sander is currently working on Open Team Server (OTS), a .NET project (C#) which aims to provide an open source system for managing the whole lifecycle of a software project. OTS is basically a source control system, but despite its name, it has nothing in common with the Team Foundation Server from Microsoft.
- Back to basics: db4o and ASP.NET MVC 3: another great intro article about writing an app with db4o and ASP.NET MVC. It's a VisualStudio solution with a very simple model but it includes tests and a web app (ASP.NET MVC3). The project relies on db4o v8 for .NET 4.0 providing a Db4oSession that derives from ISession. Additionally it provides a SessionFactory that handles the database connections.
- Jease 1.6 Released: dVP Maik Jablonski just released Jease version 1.6. Jease is a Java-based Content-Management-System which is built on top of db4o as storage engine for its content types which can be extended dynamically directly through the CMS.
- Webinar: How to select the right database for your next generation HPC applications (2/15/2011) - The explosion of information, real time data streams, real time analytics, escalating number of concurrent users, time to market, cost of ownership and the complexity of the information itself are major concerns when selecting the database platform for your next generation application. Emerging database technologies, sometimes called “noSQL”, which stands for “not only SQL”, are starting to challenge the relational database establishment. In addition, the Cloud Computing paradigm as a development and deployment model is adding new considerations to the evaluation process.
"Another benefit of db4o... NO special serialization handling, use of virtual not necessary, no default constructor required."
