You can store any object as blob, but that's not a good idea (unless object
is atomic in terms of your application).
If you want to refer to your data in object-oriented manner, you can use one
of the ORM pattern implementations on the client sise.
As for a separate data type, no, MySQL doesn't
If you serialize the object, you can store it in the data base as a blob.
