ODABA data storage formats

ODABA provides the feature of storing data in different database storage formats. Following data storage types are supported:

• Relational databases (ORACLE, MySQL, MS SQL Server)
• OXML (XML based on ODABA schema extensions)

This does not mean, that ODABA is able to access any relational database or xml file. When running ODABA on external data formats, those are managed by ODABA in order to keep all extensional features provided by the system. Thus, external formats must follow some basic rules defined for the different database formats.
