'''Service Data Objects''' is a technology that allows heterogeneous data to be accessed in a uniform way. The SDO specification was originally developed in 2004 as a joint collaboration between [[BEA Systems|BEA]] and [[IBM]] and approved by the [[Java Community Process]]. Version 2.0 of the specification was introduced in November 2005 as key part of the [[Service component architecture | Service Component Architecture]].

'''Service Data Objects''' is a technology that allows [[heterogeneous]] data to be accessed in a uniform way. The SDO specification was originally developed in 2004 as a joint collaboration between [[Oracle Corporation|Oracle]] ([[BEA Systems|BEA]]) and [[IBM]] and approved by the [[Java Community Process]] in [http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=235 JSR 235]. Version 2.0 of the specification was introduced in November 2005 as a key part of the [[Service component architecture | Service Component Architecture]].

==Relation to other technologies==

Originally, the technology was known as '''Web Data Objects''', or WDO, and was shipped in [[IBM WebSphere Application Server]] 5.1 and [[IBM WebSphere Studio Application Developer]] 5.1.2.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Introduction to Service Data Objects |website=[[IBM]] |url=http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-sdo/ Introduction|url-status=dead to|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210306022253/http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-sdo/ Service|archive-date=6 DataMarch Objects]2021}}</ref> Other similar technologies are [[Java Data Objects|JDO]], [[Eclipse Modeling Framework|EMF]], [[JAXB]] and [[ADO.NET]].

==Design==

Service Data Objects denote the use of [[language-independent specification|language-agnostic]] data structures that facilitate communication between structural tiers and various service-providing entities. They require the use of a [[tree structure]] with a [[root node]] and provide traversal mechanisms (breadth/depth-first) that allow client programs to navigate the elements. Objects can be static (fixed number of fields) or dynamic with a map-like structure allowing for unlimited fields. The specification defines [[meta-data]] for all fields and each object graph can also be provided with change summaries that can allow receiving programs to act more efficiently on them.

==Developers==

The specification is now being developed by [[BEA Systems|BEA]], [[IBM]], [[Rogue Wave (company)|Rogue Wave]], [[Oracle Corporation|Oracle]], [[SAP AG|SAP]], [[Siebel]], [[Sybase]], [[Xcalia]], [[Software AG]], [[Sun Microsystems]] within the [[OASIS (organization)|OASIS]] Member Section Open CSA<ref>[http://www.oasis-opencsa.org/ Activities and announcements | OASIS Open CSA<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> since April 2007. Collaborative work and materials remain on the collaboration platform of Open SOA,<ref>[http://www.osoa.org Home – Open SOA Collaboration<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> an informal group of actors of the industry.

==Implementations==

The following SDO products are available:

* [[Rogue Wave Software]] (HydraSDO)

* [[CodeFutures]] Software (FireStorm/SDO)

* Xcalia (for Java and .Net)

* [[Oracle Corporation|Oracle]] (Data Service Integrator) <ref>[http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/data-service-integrator/overview/index.html | Oracle Data Service Integrator]</ref>

* BEA ([[AquaLogic]] Data Services Platform)

* IBM (Virtual XML Garden)

* IBM ([[WebSphere Process Server]])

There are open source implementations of SDO from:

* The Eclipse Persistence Services Project ([[EclipseLink]])

* The [[Apache Tuscany]] project for Java and C++

* The [[SCAfcl-sdo andlibrary SDOincluded forwith PHP[[FreePascal]] project
