Hi,

how correct is the following diagram showin g modules of a
DBMS ...????
http://i529.photobucket.com/albums/dd339/aarklon/5.jpg

Interesting that the OP uses the term "modules". In today's parlance
wouldn't "services' be more appropriate?



There's fashion and then there's function. Those diagrams are
user-centric and reflect that bias. Other biases are just as possible,
depending on one's point-of-view. Personally, I suspect that the engine
developer p-o-v can produce a diagram that results in a system that is
just as useful to most users.


Also, the word "services" has connotations, perhaps due to various Irish
contributions of the 1990's, which have more to do with communicaton and
muddy the muddy waters when it comes to real function.
