Converting relational to object-oriented databases

Abstract: As object-oriented model becomes the trend of database technology, there is a need to convert relational to object-oriented database system to improve productivity and flexibility. The changeover includes schema translation, data conversion and program conversion. This paper describes a methodology for integrating schema translation and data conversion. Schema translation involves semantic reconstruction and the mapping of relational schema into object-oriented schema. Data conversion involves unloading tuples… Show more

“…Therefore, the user gets the opportunity to create a built-in data type, dynamic data type, from the existing data types inside any database. Because of its properties, Fong (1997) stat that in cases of saving data and assessing the pre-implemented database, Object Oriented approach is more suitable than other approaches. In addition, applications designed by this approach has a high level of security due to its hidden properties and methods which are built to be unseen by the user (Fong, 1997).…”

“…Data stored as tuples in an RDB are converted into complex objects/literals in object-based databases or elements in XML documents. This involves extracting and restructuring RDB data, and then reloading the converted data into a target database in order to populate the schema generated earlier during the schema translation process [22].…”
