Relational databases are increasing in use as it is straightforward in Microsoft Access, Oracle, DB2, Informix, Sybase etc. to provide a Web Interface which can be used for data (mail, curricula material etc.) with Java/JavaScript/Forms based Interfaces

Object databases such as Illustra also interfaced to Web but "business logic and serialization like XML" separates data object model and storage object model
|
| 3 |
Systems such as Cold Fusion provide convenient high level interfaces to Web-linked databases -- use XML templates
|
| 4 |
Several excellent Java to Database packages becoming available: in particular the JDBC standard based on ODBC -- more powerful but lower level than systems like Cold Fusion

CORBA views a database as a managed persistent object
