Abstract

In this paper we describe the architecture and interface of KODA, a production strength database kernel. KODA is unique in the industry in its ability to support two different data models viz. Oracle Rdb (a relational database system) and Oracle CODASYLDBMS (a CODASYL database system). Our experience in designing and implementing KODA demonstrates

Over the years, KODA based products have performed exceptionally well in industry standard benchmarks. This clearly demonstrates that including datamodel dependent functionality in the kernel is not a pre-requisite for high performance.

A data model independent kernel like KODA can thus be used, without much change, as the database industry moves from CODASYL to Relational to Object-Relational data models and beyond.
