Abstract
The work presented in the previous chapters has focused on the traditional page server architecture (as described in Section 2.2). This chapter briefly summarizes more recent work on extending the page server approach in order to provide efficient support for a wider range of application domains. Three types of extensions are discussed, all of which provide a more flexible architecture on which to build object database systems in a distributed, workstation/server environment. These extensions are: 1) supporting multiple data granularities, 2) a peer-to-peer architecture, and 3) integrating data-shipping and query-shipping.
