High-Profile Experts Help Meet Growing Demand for Free Educational Resources on OO Database Technology

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Sep. 15, 2005 � ODBMS.ORG, a vendor-independent, non-profit group of high-profile software experts lead by Prof. Roberto Zicari, today announced the launch of ODBMS.ORG (www.odbms.org), the Internet�s most up-to-date educational and research portal on object database technology. This initiative is the first of its kind in nearly two decades, since first-generation object-oriented databases emerged in the early 1990s and subsequently fell dormant.

The open source community has created a new wave of enthusiasm that's now fueling the rapid growth of second-generation, native ODBMSs and demand for appropriate education. The new portal is designed to meet this fast-growing need for educational and research resources focusing on object database technology and the integration of object-oriented programming and databases.
