Relational Databases

OpenACS requires a relational database. Supported databases are Oracle and PostgreSQL.

  • OpenACS is implemented with AOLserver Tcl files and ADP pages

  • Plus server-side stored procedures using Oracle PL/SQL or PostgreSQL pl/pgsql

More info about PostgreSQL can be found at http://postgresql.org. An introduction to SQL (with an Oracle slant) can be found at SQL for Web Nerds.
