R:BASE System

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The R:BASE System is a relational database management system for DOS and Windows from R:BASE Technologies, Inc., Murrysville, PA.

It provides a complete programming language as well as an application generator for developing programs. Options include Oterro software, which provides connectivity from any ODBC-compliant application to R:BASE, and R:Tango Web Solution Suite, which provides Web connectivity to R:BASE. Introduced in 1981 and originally developed by Microrim of Bellevue, WA, R:BASE was the first DBMS to compete with dBASE II, the leading personal computer DBMS of that era. R:BASE was acquired by R:BASE Technologies in 1998.

As of April 2006, the R:BASE system is at version 7.5.
