Abstract

See full text

A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for accessing a database. A hierarchical database system is modeled into an objects framework, wherein the objects framework corresponds to one or more application views, database definitions, and data defined and stored in the hierarchical database system. The objects framework also provides mechanisms for accessing a relational database system, wherein the objects framework provides industry-standard interfaces for attachment to the relational database system. Transactions from an application program for both the hierarchical database system and the relational database system are processed through the objects framework using message queue objects.
