"So, while there may not be a public benchmark, I can say that Versant IS running the largest finianical options trading platform in the world …. and you can just imagine the thousands of tx/sec there ( approx 70K/sec). Plus, Versant runs the largest travel availability processor in the world ( the one feeding all major airlines and travel sites like Expedia, Hotwire, Travelocity, etc ) and I’ve heard numbers like 150K tx/sec. Now, you can trust me on this one, both of these companies looked at Oracle before going with Versant. Why did they chose Versant, because it’s faster, not a little bit faster, but massively faster….. fast enough to justify any of the risks, obstacles, etc as expressed in this and the slash dot thread."

it's probably best to go with a more mature technology.

Hello,

I am researching on Object Databases to integrate with our RIA solutions. We
have to build a statistics system to handle complex databases that can have
tables with more than  900.000.000 records. The system needs to be VERY
efficient (i.e. return the result of a calculation in less than 4 seconds).
We are curious about Object Databases, especially the Versant one. We have
read all their "marketing" material, but I would like to prefer the opinion
of someone who has used ODBMS. Does someone here has experience with this
kind of solutions?

Thanks,

João Saleiro
