The new offering enhances the capabilities of the Java virtual machine to provide transparent native object persistence, dramatically reducing the costs and performance penalties associated with managing data complexity. GemStone Facets provides simple, powerful and transparent Java object persistence to applications without the need for costly development and deployment time resources dedicated to mapping Java objects to relational databases. The elimination of the development and maintenance costs of an O/R mapping framework provides for faster time to market and reduces the overall costs of building and maintaining Java applications. GemStone Facets is especially useful when dealing with a high degree of data complexity. By using GemStone Facets, there is no need for complex queries joining dozens of tables and this substantially improves the performance characteristics of the applications. The developer works with the natural object model of the application's domain.
