Orion is an Object-Relational (O/R) mapping architecture provided to support distributed-applications, large systems, and other applications that may benefit from having relational data modeled as framework objects. Object-Relational Mapping does not replace the config.bog (station) file, but provides for the creation of a new space, the Orion space, that is stored outside the station database file (like histories, files, and modules). This functionality includes a means for alternative and multiple system hierarchy displays that can be used for data presentation, system identification, and navigation.
