Hi  All:
        Thanks Davor, for the info ...

        Some more queries on querying ORDBMS ...


1.      Is it wise to go for ORDBMS/ODBMS if my data has too many
many-to-many relationships? (However, the data is low in volume and
transaction-frequency).

2.      Imagine a scenario where I have a base Class/Type ... and 4 derived
Class/Type ... I represent it as usual in RationalRose-UML... what does it
create nested-table or nested-types? 

3.      How can I get to the correct subClass/subType data at run-time ?
Does the ORDBMS(Oracle)  retrieve the correct-sub-type-data dynamically? 
                (some-what like dynamic-binding in C++)

Thanks in advance

Prem

                Lets go for the first 3. Do not know the answer to the last
two.

                Hi All, 

                        I have to represent complex-biology-data in a
database that would
                require more abstractions to be built-in so that the db
would answer all the
                generic queries.

                        Can anyone tell me about:
                                

                *       the advantages of using OBJECT-RELATIONAL features
in database 
                                        in terms of application-coding,
                generic-context-related-search etc.
                dg> ORDBMS will give you the ability to be more flexible in
defining your
                tables by using domains, user defined data types, etc.
however do not expect
                to be able to store multidimensional data with less effort
than in RDBMS.
                The ORDBMS offer more possibilities for relationships
between tables.
                Storing bio-data (and here i do not know about the kind of
data you are
                talking about - bio is huge) always depends on some
primitive factors:
                amount of data, size of data, type (or kind) of data, etc. -
there can not
                be an overall suggestion to go for ORDBMS, OODBMS, or even
an RDMBS, which
                would still be the first choice in 90% of cases.
                *       to what extent oracle supports ORDB functionalities.
                Besically the support of ORDBMS is the same at all of the
major companies.
                The offer some typing possibilities, and some additional
relationships. They
                offer inheritance, etc. Do not forget that using any of
these with huge
                amount of data costs huge amount of time.
                *       to what extent RationalRose supports ORDB designing.
                Rational Rose supports user defined domains
                *       Any sample-implementations (app-side and db-side )
available in
                public-domain?
                do not know.
                *       Any helpful sites .. regarding this.
                sorry

                Thanks verymuch in advance

                Prem
