Database Management Systems

Database management systems have evolved from sequential access using magnetic tapes in the 1950s-1960s, to direct access using hard disks in the late 1960s-1970s when hierarchical and network data models became popular. Ted Codd defined the relational data model in 1970, which led to research prototypes at IBM and UC Berkeley and SQL becoming the industry standard in the 1980s. Modern databases include large data warehouses, web-scale distributed storage, and automated administration of highly parallel systems.

History of Database Systems


1950s and early 1960s: Data processing using magnetic tapes for storage Tapes provide only sequential access Punched cards for input Late 1960s and 1970s: Hard disks allow direct access to data Network and hierarchical data models in widespread use Ted Codd defines the relational data model Would win the ACM Turing Award for this work IBM Research begins System R prototype UC Berkeley begins Ingres prototype High-performance (for the era) transaction processing
