ordbms is an object relatio

Small change

The object-relational model can offer another advantage in that the database can make use of the relationships between data to easily collect related records. In an address book application, an additional table would be added to the ones above to hold zero or more addresses for each user. Using a traditional RDBMS, collecting information for both the user and their address requires a "join": If I'm not mistaken, this paragraph means that one would need an additional table in a traditional RDBMS and only one table that also stores the adresses for the users in a ORDBMS. It should be made more clear if I am right or one would need two tables in an ORD, too. Subwy (talk) 21:51, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
