The TPF Database Facility
(TPFDF) provides database management functions to the TPF and
Airline Control System (ALCS) user and is widely used in the TPF
industry for the storage and management of mission critical data.
The database management functions increase programmer productivity
by providing centralized database handling routines so that application
programmers only need to understand the logical relationships
of data, not the physical characteristics. This simplifies the
application programmer's job by allowing high speed access to
persistent data on TPF while providing an application interface.
TPFDF also provides the database administrator with the tools
necessary to manage the database without affecting application
programs.
