Experiences in Federated Databases: From IRO-DB to MIRO-Web
Summary: Reports implementation experience with IRO-DB, a three-layer federation using ODMG as the pivot for heterogeneous relational/object databases, remote access, and integrated views. Distills lessons and requirements for extending the architecture to Internet-scale MIRO-Web federations. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
