Answer / sap

IMS is a hiberarchical database managerment system.
It mainly contains two components, IMS DB and IMS TM.
From the function of the two componets, we can understand
as this:
IMS DB: Hiberarchical database. (Using DL/I manipulate
data.)
DB2/ORICALE/MySql : Relational database.( Using SQL
manipulate data.)

System), which is used to deal with transaction.(
Transaction is devided into several types, we can
understand it is a interactive conversion. We draw money
from ATM can be a transaction.)

IMS has a long history, but he is still energiable. At the
same time, IMS has the two components of itself, can
realize the information managerment completely, which

very low.
