Knowledge Management White Papers

The Postgres Next Generation DBMS

Overview Commercial relational DBMSs are oriented toward efficient support for business data processing applications where large numbers of instances of fixed format records must be stored and accessed. The traditional transaction management and query facilities for this application area will be termed data management, and are addressed by relational systems. To satisfy the needs of users outside of business applications, DBMSs must be expanded to offer services in two other dimensions, namely object management and knowledge management. Object management entails efficiently storing and manipulating non-traditional data types such as bitmaps, icons, text, and polygons. Object management problems abound in CAD and many other engineering applications.
