  Hi there, can anyone give me some info on OODMS (OBJECT ORIENTED DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS).

  I'm currently responsible for a large CRM system and now it seems our development manager is quite keen on changing from a RDBMS to OODMS.

  I'm a bit worried about changing the structure of our db so that it will now cater for one Delphi app...

  How would a move like this affect websites also using the db and reporting..?

  BE CAREFUL!

  I worked with one   a long time ago it was painful when we needed scaling!!

  If you are planing to use a mainly transactional system I would advice you to STICK TO RDBMS!

  If it is a very heterogenious system carefuly try to isolate the parts that will use OODMS from the ones that will be better handled on a RDBMS!
