San Francisco, CA. - April 20, 2004
THOUGHT Inc.®,
The Dynamic O/R Mapping™ Company, announces the successful
use of CocoBase® Enterprise O/R, the market leader and award
winning Dynamic Object to Relational Mapping™ tool, by S2 Systems,
global provider of enterprise payment and transaction management
solutions. The web interface for their OpeN/2® system utilizes
CocoBase® to manage the flow of data to and from the database.
CocoBase® easily allows OpeN/2 to work with many different databases
while requiring no change to the application, a key advantage for
any database-neutral product. The flexibility of CocoBase®,
the low cost of the system and the short time frame required to
complete the application were key factors in S2 Systems' successful
use of CocoBase®.
"We found
CocoBase® to be an excellent choice for managing the data in
our OpeN/2 enterprise payment solution. CocoBase® made it easy
to create database-independent advanced queries. This is a clear
competitive edge as we can easily support any leading relational
database. We are very happy with the tool and the support we received
from Thought," said Russell Alexander, Senior Software Engineer,
S2 Systems Inc.
CocoBase®
Enterprise O/R is a vendor neutral Dynamic Object to Relational
Mapping™ layer that sits on top of the JDBC driver between
the application objects (often running in an application server)
and the database (which is usually a relational database for most
modern IT organizations). CocoBase® manages the persistence
and retrieval of data from the application to where it is stored
in the relational database.
CocoBase®
takes the database specific code and prewritten SQL out of the object
and saves this information to the mapping layer (i.e. map), thus
decoupling the object from being hard coded to the database. The
database specific code and SQL is dynamically created at runtime.
This allows objects to be easily reused over and over. This dynamic
layer provides a multitude of performance and scaling optimizations
that are easily changed by the programmer to best fit their specific
needs.
