With Intershop 7/Intershop Commerce Management, the relational database system is used to store data whenever a transactional access or search capability is required. As a rule of thumb, all business data and some of the system configuration data is stored in the relational database system. Access to the database system happens primarily via the object-relational mapping mechanism of the ORM engine, which internally uses the native client drivers to access the database server.
Currently, Intershop 7/Intershop Commerce Management support Oracle database systems only.
