Abstract

In present time Database Management Systems (DBMS) technology is a key technology in most Systems Integration projects. The fast pace of development in this area makes it difficult for SI professionals to keep up with the latest advances, and to appreciate the limitations of the present generation of products. This paper briefly discusses the past achievements of database research and development and comments on the current status of database technology. We then focus on new directions in this area and discuss the challenges presented by new types of applications. The existing relational DBMS (RDBMS) technology has been successfully applied to many application domains. RDBMS technology has proved to be an effective solution for data management requirements in large and small organizations, and today this technology forms a key component of most information systems. However, the advances in computer hardware, and the emergence of new application requirements such multimedia and mobile databases produced a situation where the basic underlying principles of data management need to be re-evaluated.
