In contrast of the bottom-up analysis which let us create a superobject,
we may want to separate the Data objects into disk
data objects and memory data objects. The splitting will avoid an additional
parameter at object creation time that specifies which one
of these two objects we want.
But we see also that there
is a high connectivity between this two type of objects. In fact the Data
object is not a data store object but a manipulator of the data.
A data store object, or really two data store objects are needed. These
objects will have only Put and Get functionalities. They will
either work on disk or in memory.
The Data object as a manipulator of the data will have the
data store object as internal data.
