Performance Comparison of Relational Database with Object Database (DB4o)

Abstract

In the present day scenario of mobility and objects, the field of object oriented programming is gaining momentum not only in field of gaming, programming but also in area of DBMS. The paper discusses object oriented approach for solving queries. The queries are executed and analyzed specifically on an object oriented database DB4o. The industry is moving with time from basic models of DBMS to one such DBMS discussed in this paper. Experiments have been carried out using both DB4o and MySQL for a huge airport data base. The paper also discusses two factors namely Querying methodology and Performance analysis in comparison with traditional DBMS like MySQL. The proposed approach proves that ODBMS is more efficient compared to RDBMS.
