Object Databases
Object Database:
An object database (more correctly referred to as ODBMS or OODBMS for Object DBMS or Object Oriented DBMS, respectively) is a DBMS (database management system) that stores objects as opposed to tuples or records in a RDBMS (Relational Database Management System) or record-based DBMS. As data is stored as objects it can be interpreted only using the methods specified by its class. The relationship between similar objects is preserved (inheritance) as are references between objects.

Orient
Orient is an ODBMS, namely an Object Data Base Management System.
An ODBMS is quite different from a Relational DBMS (RDBMS) and Object Relational DBMS (ORDBMS) because it can handle natively objects with no conversion between user language and DBMS.
Orient ODBMS can be used as stand-alone application to store information and by custom application written in C++ and/or Java languages.
The Orient architecture is based on objects. Objects are the unit of exchange among client and server components.
For this reason Orient can be classified as an Object Server.
