NoSQL RDBMS
NoSQL is a shell-level relational database management system
for UNIX. Unlike most DBMS'es, NoSQL is not a single large program,
rather it is a set of small programs that are run from the shell.
This allows the user to utilize the full power of the Unix shell
in coordination with NoSQL.
It uses the Operator/Stream DBMS paradigm described in "Unix
Review", March, 1991, page 24, entitled "A 4GL Language".
There are a number of "operators" that each perform a unique
function on the data. The "stream" is suplied by the UNIX
Input/Output redirection mechanism. Therefore each operator
processes some data and then passes it along to the next
operator via the UNIX pipe function. This tends to be rather
efficient as UNIX pipes are implemented in memory. NoSQL is
compliant with the "Relational Model". Read the document
"4gl.ps", included with the distribution, for further details.
See file INSTALL for installation instructions.
