Sounds a somewhat like GemStone/S

I think also IBM has or had somewhat similar concepts.

Gemstone/S was first an object database, per above article. Vaguely reminds me of:

Which I heard about from a friend who was using it at work.

Caché is first one in the table.

I remember object or object relational databases were popular at one time. maybe they still are to some extent.
