The IMS Data Storage Hierarchy - DSH-11.

Abstract

The need for efficient storage and processing of very large data bases coupled with advances in Large Scale Integration (LSI) technology have motivated various proposals to develop specialized computers for data base processing. The IMS data base computer (DBC) approach to this problem is to implement the logical functions of a data base management system by means of a hierarchy of microprocessors and to use a data storage hierarchy for efficient storage and retrieval of very large databases.
