Versant currently markets three commercial object databases (OODBMS), “Versant JPA,” "Versant Object Database" and "Versant FastObjects". In addition, Versant offers the open source database "db4o".
- Versant JPA is a JPA 2.0 compliant interface for its object database that includes a technical preview of an Analytics platform including Hadoop support. It is available as a server and SDK for use with Windows and Linux operating systems.
- Versant Object Database is used primarily for complex Java, .NET and C++ applications, especially those with high concurrency and performance requirements and very large data sets. The Versant Object Database is available for use with the operating systems Windows, Linux, Solaris, HP-UX and AIX and can be integrated in Java, .NET or C++ programs. Unlike in a relational database management system (RDBMS, e.g., Oracle), complex logical models can be directly stored, read and modeled as domain objects without having to model them first in relational tables.
- "Versant FastObjects" is a developer-friendly, object-oriented alternative to a relational database for .NET persistence.
- "db4o" is a lightweight, open source, easy-to-use native embedded object database for Java and .NET. db4o is 100% coded in Java and translated to C# by an open-source tool called Sharpen.

“Isnt it odd that networks accept billions of dollars from advertisers to teach people to use products and then proclaim that children arent learning about violence from their steady diet of it on television!”
—Toni Liebman (20th century)
“All that is told of the sea has a fabulous sound to an inhabitant of the land, and all its products have a certain fabulous quality, as if they belonged to another planet, from seaweed to a sailors yarn, or a fish story. In this element the animal and vegetable kingdoms meet and are strangely mingled.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“But, most of all, the Great Society is not a safe harbor, a resting place, a final objective, a finished work. It is a challenge constantly renewed, beckoning us toward a destiny where the meaning of our lives matches the marvelous products of our labor.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (19081973)
