Object and File Management in the EXODUS Extensible Database System

Summary: EXODUS storage uses object-oriented storage: uninterpreted, variable-length storage objects enable higher-level constructs. A large-object scheme handles dynamic growth, versioning, and grouping of related objects, with integrated buffering, concurrency control, and recovery. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
