Component Database Systems is a collection of invited chapters by the researchers making the most influential contributions in the database industry's trend toward componentization This book represents the sometimes-divergent, sometimes-convergent approaches taken by leading database vendors as they seek to establish commercially viable componentization strategies. Together, these contributions form the first book devoted entirely to the technical and architectural design of component-based database systems. In addition to detailing the current state of their research, the authors also take up many of the issues affecting the likely future directions of component databases. If you have a stake in the evolution of any of today's leading database systems, this book will make fascinating reading. It will also help prepare you for the technology that is likely to become widely available over the next several years. * Is comprised of contributions from the field's most highly respected researchers, including key figures at IBM, Oracle, Informix, Microsoft, and POET. * Represents the entire spectrum of approaches taken by leading software companies working on DBMS componentization strategies. * Covers component-focused architectures, methods for hooking components into an overall system, and support for component development. * Examines the component technologies that are most valuable to Web-based and multimedia databases. * Presents a thorough classification and overview of component database systems.
Additionally, the book includes a number of Foster's original methodologies that add clarity and creativity to the database modeling and design experience while making a novel contribution to the discipline.

We introduce Active Component Database Systems (ACDBS), which are able to interact with each other using direct database connections established from within their database management systems. Interdependencies between the data sources ...
With this practical guide, Alex Petrov guides developers through the concepts behind modern database and storage engine internals.
Semantic heterogeneity in federated database systems is primarily caused by design autonomy of component database systems. Component database systems may employ diVerent design principles for modeling the same or related data, ...
Component database systems, e.g., [13, 20] offer special customisation points, similar to hot spots in OO frameworks, to allow custom components to be incorporated into the database system. However, customisation in these systems is ...

The analysis about the kind of integration that exists among the HDBS components allows HDBSs to be classified into tightly coupled or loosely coupled federated database systems ( SL90 ) . Tightly coupled HDBSs are made of a set of ...
... administered component database systems (CDBSs). The purpose of an MDBS is to support controlled sharing of system-wide data sources and provide coordinated control among a collection of autonomous and possibly heterogeneous CDBSs.
