[comp.databases] Gemstone

geller@bnrmtv.UUCP (Phil Geller) (11/23/88)

Does anyone know where I can get information on Gemstone.  All
I know about it is that it is an object oriented DBMS.  I'm looking
for a vendor name and address, review articles, or comments from 
anyone who has had experience with it.

Phil Geller (geller@bnrmtv.UUCP) asked for some information on
GemStone.  Here goes:

GemStone is an object-oriented database management system available
from:

	Servio Logic Development Corporation
	15025 S.W. Koll Parkway, Bldg 1-A
	Beaverton, OR  97006
	(503) 644-4242

Monty Williams would be a good contact; he can direct you to the right
Servio people to answer your questions.  

Let me take this golden opportunity to shamelessly tout my own work.
Just days ago, my comprehensive review of object-oriented technology
rolled off the presses.  _Leaders in Object Technology_ was
commissioned and published by technology and industry analysis firm
D.H. Brown Associates.  It explains the impact of object-oriented
software (including databases), and compares in detail a number of
commercially available systems.  To find out more:

	Jonathan Eunice
	D.H. Brown Associates
	Axe Castle
	400 Benedict Avenue
	Tarrytown, New York  10591
	914-631-7859

PS:  I will post a brief description of GemStone within a few days.
