Object database for business modeling with improved data security

Abstract

A modular object database for holistic, object-oriented business modeling, in which business data and processes of all types are represented separately in key and value objects, wherein the attributes and methods of the objects are likewise stored separately from one another, and the database management system itself is implemented as objects of the object database, as a result of which simpler handling of the object database and substantially improved data security is achieved overall. Whereas conventional databases store a number of objects in a database together with keys, values and methods, SBM offers possibilities for partitioning, specifically the fragmentation of objects into key and value objects and the separate storage of attributes and methods. Furthermore, the database functionality is also fragmented insofar as it is itself held in the form of objects in the object database and is realized in the form of methods via associated services so that objects can work according to different database principles.
