Carbonado Carbonado Carbonado, commonly known as the "black diamond", is the toughest form of natural diamond. It is an impure form of polycrystalline diamond consisting of diamond, graphite, and amorphous carbon. It is found primarily in alluvial deposits in the Central African Republic and in Brazil. Its natural colour is black or dark grey, and it is more porous than other diamonds. Carbonado diamonds are typically pea-sized or larger porous aggregates of many tiny black crystals. The most characteristic carbonados have been found only in the Central African Republic and in Brazil, in neither place associated with kimberlite, the source of
Carbonado (Java) Carbonado is not like an O/R mapping framework. Such frameworks typically hide the concept of transactions entirely, often by using sessions which track changes. In Carbonado, all actions are direct. Carbonado (Java) Carbonado is an open source relational database mapping framework, written in Java. Rather than following a typical O/R mapping approach, the relational model is preserved, while still being object-oriented. Not being tied to specific features of SQL or JDBC, Carbonado also supports non-SQL database products such as Berkeley DB. In doing so, relational features such as queries and indexes are supported, without the overhead of SQL. Carbonado was
