Object Oriented Database vs Relational Database
SEH
(Semiconductor Manufacturing)
SEH, the world's largest silicon wafer manufacturing company, has been using an ODBMS-based system for process control of all phases of wafer fabrication since 1996. Vector Consulting helped build the system, which now automates and optimizes their operations.
Their requirements that led to the choice of the ODBMS include:
- A database that could manage very complex associations between data, many to many
- Performance had to be very good to manage traversal requirements in the database
- 24 x 7 availability was also a requirement, including online backup and restore
- SQL interface for reporting
