I would love to know if there is an industry standard way of mapping an inheritance typed object instance tree into a relational database while maintaining a high level of normalisation. What gets me is how to choose the point in the tree where flattening the objects is most efficient, yet causes least xml overflow blobs. Has anyone managed this task? It seems like it would be best to build an object oriented system on top of sql server through translation stored procedures. I know that SQL server can create a database from an XML Schema, but nowhere does it say how it handles extension and restriction types.
