Abstract

Application programs which are developed and scheduled within a first computing system environment are permitted to access relational data registered at a remote database management system (DBMS) operating in a second computing environment dissimilar to the first computing environment. Access to data through the DBMS from an application execution site remote from the DBMS is supported by a process, logically subordinate to the application program which maps application program data access requests to the DBMS.
