HP 3000

The key development that led to the tremendous success of the HP 3000 was the bundling of the HP-developed network database management system (DBMS) called IMAGE (now called TurboIMAGE/SQL) that was reputedly inspired by the TOTAL DBMS developed by Cincom Systems, Inc. IMAGE was an award-winning database anointed by Datamation within two years of the database's introduction.

Lotus DataLens

It provided drivers for a number of common data sources, including a variety of mainframe SQL servers, microcomputer database files of various sorts, and even flat-file systems.

Magic quotes

Modern database engines and libraries use parameterised queries to pass data to the database separately from SQL commands, greatly reducing the need to escape data before constructing the queries.

mysqlBind (now unxsBind) centralizes all data in a replicated SQL database and limits any DNS configuration errors to one software package failure point.

Object-relational impedance mismatch

For example, most SQL systems support string types with varying collations and constrained maximum lengths (open-ended text types tend to hinder performance), while most OO languages consider collation only as an argument to sort routines and strings are intrinsically sized to available memory.

OpenTMS

Currently the following data sources are supported: TMX files, XLIFF file, SQL databases.
