The fast, easy way to leverage IDS 9.x's full object-relational power! - Supercharge your next IDS-9.x application!
- "Bladelets": easy DataBlade building blocks for powerful object-relational solutions
- Covers Vtables, temporal data management, hierarchical problems, text manipulation, BLOBs, and much more
- CD-ROM: Open source bladelet code for solving a wide range of business problems
Object-relational databases offer immense power but many database professionals have failed to use it, because doing so required them to write their own DataBlade extensions. This book presents a breakthrough solution: bladelets. Created by a team of Informix' leading DataBlade experts, bladelets serve as building blocks, bringing Informix Dynamic Server 9.x ORDBMS power to bear on a wide range of business problems, while requiring far less original programming.
All ten bladelets are covered in detail, with open source code provided on CD-ROM. Whether you use them "as is," or as the model for your own DataBlades, they can dramatically improve the performance, value, and time-to-market of your very next database application. Coverage includes: - Solving hierarchical problems
- Extending SQL to support temporal data management
- Accessing external files through SQL
- Using SQL as a data type
- Overcoming database portability problems
- Manipulating text with regular expressions
- Removing LVARCHAR size limits
- Using BLOBs more effectively
- Managing multiple versions of your data with virtual tables, and much more
CD-ROM INCLUDED
The accompanying CD-ROM contains all of the book's code examples plus a toolbox of open-source DataBlades, complete with source code, designed to quickly solve a wide range of business problems.
