Object Management in Postgres Using Procedures
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents the object management facilities being designed into a next-generation data manager, POSTGRES. This system is unique in that it does not invent a new data model for support of objects but chooses instead to extend the relational model with a powerful abstract data typing capability and procedures as full-fledged data base objects. The reasons to remain with the relational model are indicated in this paper along with the POSTGRES relational extensions.

Large Object Support in POSTGRES
This paper presents four implementations for support of large objects in POSTGRES. The four implementations offer varying levels of support for security, transactions, compression, and time travel. All are implemented using the POSTGRES abstract data type paradigm, support userdefined operators and functions, and allow file-oriented access to large objects in the database. The support for user-...
متن کاملA Shared Object Hierarchy
This paper describes the design and proposed implementation of a shared object hierarchy. The object hierarchy is stored in a relational database and objects referenced by an application program are cached in the program’s address space. The paper describes the database representation for the object hierarchy and the use of POSTGRES, a next-generation relational database management system, to i...
متن کاملThe POSTGRES Data Model
The design of the POSTGRES data model is described. The data model is a relational model that has been extended with abstract data types including user-defined operators and procedures, relation attributes of type procedure, and attribute and procedure inheritance. These mechanism can be used to simulate a wide variety of semantic and object-oriented data modeling constructs including aggregati...
متن کاملAn Object-Oriented Query Language for Multimedia Database Systems
In this paper, we propose a general-purpose multimedia query language that is built upon a set of generalized n-ary spatio-temporal relations and object-oriented modelling paradigm for multinnedia data. We present a grammar for the query language and elaborate how various functiona;!ities such as declartion of multimedia data, specification of spatio-temporal logic, expressio~l of spatio-tempor...
متن کاملPrinciples of Database Management System Extensibility
This paper presents the mechanisms being designed into the next-generation data manager POSTGRES to support extendability. POSTGRES supports user defined data types, operators, functions, aggregate functions and access methods. This paper sketches the specification and implementation of each of these constructs.
