The acronym ODS stands for "On-Disk Structure." The ODS version of a database indicates the format that is being used to physically store a Notes database. The ODS version for Releases 6.x through 7.x was ODS 43. The default ODS version for Release 8 is also ODS 43. However, in order to take advantage of certain Release 8 features, an optional ODS version can be used for Notes 8 databases. The optional version is ODS 48 and is required in order to use the following additional Release 8 features:

- Design note compression
- On demand collation
- User rename list stored in database
