PostgreSQL Object-Oriented Database?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
 
Thanks in advance for your help.
 
I have a lot of experience with object-oriented programming and relational databases, but I'm new to PostgreSQL.
 
My agency has a contractor that created a PostgreSQL database that he calls "object-oriented".  I noticed that the contractor has more than one value in a column separated by commas.  In the relational world, this obviously violates first normal form.  When I asked about it, he said that it's because PostgreSQL is an "object-oriented database".  I'm very skeptical.
 
Can someone tell me if this guy is right?
 
Thanks.
