CDO is a 3-tiers solution for ''distributed shared models'' and a complete ''model repository''. With CDO you can easily enhance your existing EMF models in such a way that they can be stored and subsequently maintained in a central model repository. While object relational mapping against a JDBC data source on the server side is the shipped default CDO provides for ''pluggable storage adapters'' that allow you to develop and use different mappers (like Hibernate- or OODB-based). On the client side CDO provides a default integration with EMF, the Eclipse Modeling Framework, although other model integrations on top of the ''CDO protocol'' are imaginable as well.

CDO is both a development-time model repository and a run-time persistence framework. Being highly optimized it supports object graphs of arbitrary size.

CDO offers transactions with save points, explicit locking, change notification, queries, temporality, branching, merging, offline and fail-over modes, ...

The storage back-end is pluggable and migrations between direct JDBC, Hibernate, Objectivity/DB, MongoDB or DB4O are seamless for CDO applications.
