Compare contrast relational databases object-relational databases and object-oriented databases Site an example or scenario where each type is best used?
A relational database is structure to recognize relations among
information, and stores the information in tables. An
object-oriented database focuses on presenting the information in
the form of objects, to be used for object-oriented programming.
Object-relational databases are a hybrid of the two, keeping
relations stored but still keeping the object-type data. Relational
databases are best for presentation of the data itself, while
object-oriented databases are better for deriving new information
from given information.
