[comp.databases] hierarchical and directed graph queries in extensible DBs

wahl@shodha.enet.dec.com (David Wahl) (02/13/91)

I am interested in hearing about experiences people have had with
handling non-relational data using extensible databases (Postgres,
Exodus, Genesis, etc.).  I am particularly curious about how people
might have used the host of features present in these systems for 
representing bills of materials, organization charts, product flow
diagrams, manufacturing process flows, and the like.

If you email to wahl@cookie.enet.dec.com, I will summarize for the 
newsgroup.  I also read the newsgroup if you would like to start a
thread on this topic.

Regards,
Dave Wahl
