The Java Platform as a Database

Mick Jordan

Abstract: It is argued that the provision of orthogonal persistence for the Java(TM) platform (OPJ) provides a database suitable for a wide range of applications. The OPJ specification is briefly described and its properties discusses, including the unique support for persistence of code and execution state. It is shown how OPJ provides basic support for queries.
