Abstract

Discusses the properties of a 64-bit environment and the redesign of our 32-bit INADA/ODMG object management system for the 64-bit environment. The new implementation is introduced based on the 64-bit properties. In the new design, a very large on-disk database can be mapped onto a large-size virtual memory without considering the size limitation. High query performance and storage capability are expected in the new INADA/ODMG. While designing the implementation of a Sequoia 2000 benchmark, we came to the conclusion that OQL is flexible enough to handle massive amounts of complicated data.
