Hello,
RDBMSes are sometimes described as a reaction against network-/ hierarchical databases. I believe that I've read that CODASYL-like DBMSes resulted in databases which were very hard to maintain.
Does someone know of more concrete descriptions of what problems the old CODASYL-like databases resulted in?
