Building Scalable Database Applications: Object-Oriented Design, Architectures and Implementations

Building Scalable Database Applications: Object-Oriented Design, Architectures, and Implementation is a comprehensive and authoritative guide to building client/server applications by developing a stable and reusable business model. The business and database models illustrated in this book both address the unique challenge of manipulating object storage and retrieval from a developer's point of view. Software engineers and programmers need this information to lead their development teams toward businesswide distributed software systems. This book demonstrates the pragmatic approach of integrating systems that are currently in use into a cost-effective and time-saving object-oriented system. The approach allows for the business model and the database schema to operate independently so that they can evolve individually, allowing them to be easily reused and maintained.
