Server Types

Server Types

There are several kinds of database servers which include:

• Flat file database servers
• Relational database servers
• Object database servers
• Object relational database servers

The most popular today are Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS). However, object database servers may someday overtake the relational database servers.

Object Database Servers

Object database servers use an Object Query Language (OQL) as a standard language for communication.
