Description : The value of RDMS for Prolog is often over-estimated, as Prolog itself can
: manage substantial amounts of data. Nevertheless a Prolog/RDMS interface
: provides advantages if data is already provided in an RDMS, data must be
: shared with other applications, there are strong persistency requirements
: or there is too much data to fit in memory.
:
: The popularity of ODBC makes it possible to design a single
: foreign-language module that provides RDMS access for a wide variety of
: databases on a wide variety of platforms. The SWI-Prolog RDMS interface is
: closely modeled after the ODBC API. This API is rather low-level, but
: defaults and dynamic typing provided by Prolog give the user quite simple
: access to RDMS, while the interface provides the best possible performance
: given the RDMS independency constraint.
