Description
A group of relational database technology pioneers from Oracle, Informix, Sybase and Ingres discuss the technology advances made by their companies during the late 1970s through the 1990s. They discuss the major new technological problems which they had to deal with including the need to improve performance particularly for OLTP applications and for complex queries. There is a lengthy discussion of the role played by the various standards committees, both domestic and international. There is also a discussion on security issues and on other database models which were developed.
