The VERSANT ODBMS is industry's leading object database management system for multi-user, distributed applications. Supported by a unique object-based architecture, VERSANT provides support for enterprise applications in industries such as telecommunications, utilities, transportation, finance, and health care. The unique features and benefits of the VERSANT ODBMS are:
- Transparent fail over and high reliability for full 24 x 7 availability. VERSANT achieves the extraordinarily high standards needed to support continuous operation, including on-line recovery and management utilities as well as on-line schema evolution and disk space management. All routine maintenance of the database is performed while the database is running. VERSANT's reliability is heightened by the VERSANT Fault Tolerant Server, an add-on product which provides geographic redundancy in the case of system failure.
- Object-based architecture, providing the highest possible concurrency in multi-user environments. By offering object-level granularity as well as group operations on objects, VERSANT balances application demands with user access. As the ButlerBloor Organization put it, "VERSANT provides the highest performance in the industry across a variety of application loadings."
- A balanced client/server architecture, optimizing the use of all network resources. Because both computing and networking resources are valuable,
VERSANT makes the best use of each. By using dual caching (page-caching on the server; object-caching on the client) and supporting server-based queries and event management, organizations can maximize the use of their computing infrastructure.

- Logical object identification providing distributed database capabilities. Unlike competing systems, VERSANT uses a logical means of identifying objects. This intelligent functionality assures that applications maintain referential integrity, allows objects to be migrated across the network, and provides for dynamic disk space management. All of this functionality is transparent to application developers and makes a truly distributed database a reality.
