Chapter 3. JDO Architectures
One of JDO’s primary objectives is to provide you with a transparent, Java-centric view of persistent information stored in a wide variety of datastores. You can use the Java programming model to represent the data in your application domain and transparently retrieve and store this data from various systems, without needing to learn a new data-access language for each type of datastore. The JDO implementation provides the necessary mapping from your Java objects to the special datatypes and relationships of the underlying datastore. Chapter 4 discusses Java modeling capabilities you can use in your applications. This chapter provides a high-level overview of the architectural aspects of JDO, as well as examples of environments in which JDO can be used. We cannot enumerate all such environments in this book, because JDO is capable of running in a wide variety of architectures.
A JDO implementation is a collection of classes that implement the interfaces defined in the JDO specification. The implementation may be provided by an Enterprise Information System (EIS) vendor or a third-party vendor; in this context, we refer to both as JDO vendors. A JDO implementation provided by an EIS vendor will most likely be optimized for the specific EIS.
The JDO architecture simplifies the development of scalable, secure, and transactional JDO implementations that support the JDO interface. You can access a wide variety of storage solutions that have radically different ...
