.NET Database, Matisse 6.0

Matisse DBMS is designed to benefit both object developers and database administrators. Matisse combines native support for Object, SQL and XML within a single SQL-programmable data server. It simplifies application development by providing native support for virtually all object-oriented languages and eliminates the need for Object/Relational mapping. Other key features include dynamic schema evolution without data migration, data replication ensuring the database availability, linear scalability, fast joins, integration with 3rd party tools like Rational Rose or diverse reporting tools, and requring no dedicated DBA.

Matisse Software provides its native ADO.NET Data Provider for Matisse 6.0, the Database for .NET, and has pushed the envelope of Microsoft ADO.NET architecture and extended it into a powerful Object Access Services component for .NET.

Matisse’s extension of ADO.NET demonstrates that ADO.NET can evolve beyond the Microsoft architecture to benefit .NET developers. Unlike the standard ADO.NET data provider, which returns data in a table format to integrate seamlessly with relational products, Matisse has extended the ADO.NET architecture to return data in an object format. By adding a single method - GetObject() - to an ADO.NET object, Matisse has transformed the architecture of applications, removing the need for Object-Relational mapping layer and all the limitations that come with it. This feature alone eliminates 30% to 50% of your application code benefiting .NET Developers.
