	Relational database management system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A relational database management system (RDBMS) is a database management system (DBMS) that is based on the relational model as introduced by Edgar F. Codd.
		A second, theory-based school of thought argues that if a database does not implement all of Codd's rules (or the current understanding on the relational model, as expressed by Christopher J Date, Hugh Darwen and others), it is not relational.
		Database Debunkings - Critical point of view that argues that it is important that the predicate relational should be reserved for those database systems that are fully faithful to the relational model.

	Howstuffworks "What are relational databases?"
		In fact, the relational database was born in 1970 when E.F. Codd, a researcher at IBM, wrote a paper outlining the process.
		In the relational database example, you can quickly compare salaries and ages because of the arrangement of data in columns.
		Relational databases are created using a special programming language, structured query language (SQL), that is the standard for database interoperability.

	Chapter 6: The Rise of Relational Databases \| Funding a Revolution: Government Support for Computing Research
		For instance, although the relational model was originally proposed and developed at IBM, it was a government-funded effort at the University of California at Berkeley (UC-Berkeley) that disseminated the idea widely and gave it the intellectual legitimacy required for broad acceptance and commercialization.
		The term "database" emerged to capture the sense that the information stored within a computer could be conceptualized, structured, and manipulated independently of the specific machine on which it resided.
		System R and Ingres were not the only relational database efforts to spring from Codd's work.

		Between 1994 and 1997, it grew in popularity and became the primary database of choice for open source developers.
		Though it was the database of choice of Open Source, mSQL itself was not an open source technology.
		Nevertheless, the database is still in active development with version 3.7 released as recently as May 8, 2005.

	Main Page - SRB
		The SRB can be used as a Data Grid Management System (DGMS) that provides a hierarchical logical namespace to manage the organization of data (usually files).
		The most common usage of SRB is as a Distributed Logical File System (a synergy of database system concepts and file systems concepts) that provides a powerful solution to manage multi-organizational file system namespaces.
		The SRB system is middleware in the sense that it is built on top of other major software packages (file systems, archives, real-time data sources, relational database management systems, etc).

	Database Management Systems
		The file system that comes with your computer is a very primitive kind of database management system.
		Object systems contribute to software reliability and compactness by allowing programmers to factor their code into chunks that are used as widely as possible.
		Relational databases tend to be faster and better at producing aggregations based on attributes.

	Technology review: Databases
		True Relational DBMS use the Structured Query Language (SQL) to extract and update data and conform as closely as possible to the theoretical relational rules of normalisation.
		Free Form databases have no structure and thus the advantages of a relational structure to create authority files where data is kept just once and concepts such as global edit and heading merge are not easy to achieve.
		The database management functions are closely coupled with the application language and as a result Mumps is a very fast and efficient database management environment.

	Learn About Microsoft Access
		Microsoft Access is a relational database management system from Microsoft, packaged with Microsoft Office Professional which combines the Jet relational database engine with a graphical interface.
		The report writer in Access is similar to the other popular database report writer â€“ Crystal Reports but the two products are vastly different in their approach.
		All database queries, formulas, and reports are stored in the database, and in keeping with the ideals of the relational model, there is no possibility of making a physically structured hierarchy with them.

	DATA MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES - Codd's 12 Rules
		In 1985, Dr. Codd published a list of 12 rules that concisely define an ideal relational database, which have provided a guideline for the design of all relational database systems ever since.
		All commercial relational databases use forms of the standard SQL (Structured Query Language) as their supported comprehensive language.
		Most databases rely on strong ties between the user view of the data and the actual structure of the underlying tables.
