'''Linter SQL RDBMS''' is the main product of [[RELEX Group]]. Linter is a Russian DBMS compliant with the [[SQL:2003]] standard<ref>http://linter.ru/en/review/characteristics/</ref> (except non-scalar data types and object-oriented capabilities) and supporting the majority of operating systems, among them [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]], various versions of [[Unix]], [[QNX]], and others. The system enables transparent interaction between the client [[Application software|applications]] and the database server functioning in different [[Computer hardware|hardware]] and [[Computer software|software]] environments. DBMS Linter includes program [[Interface (computer science)|interfaces]] for the majority of popular development tools. The system provides a high data security level allowing the user to work with secret information. Linter is the only [[DBMS]] certified by FSTEC of Russia as compliant with Class 2 data security requirements and Level 2 of undeclared feature absence control. For many years Linter has been used by Russian [[Ministry of Defence (Russia)|Ministry of Defense]], [[Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Russia)|Ministry of Foreign Affairs]] and other government bodies.

==History==

The history of Linter dates back to 1980. The system has domestic predecessors whose developers later took direct part in the creation of Linter. By 1983, according to a state order, the [[Voronezh]] construction design office "Systemprogramm" had successfully completed the relational DBMS "BARS" under the real-time operating system "RAFOS" (RT-11 prototype) for computers of the SM set.
Since 1985, the system developers accepted the mobility, compatibility and openness concept. As a result, DBMS "INTEREAL" was implemented. The system covered a wide spectrum of hardware and software platforms, from "Electronika-85" and [[Intel 8086]] control modules to SM1702 and "Electronika-82" computer complexes and their [[VAX]] prototypes.
In 1990, the DBMS development team founded the research-and-production company "RELEX" ("Relational Expert Systems"). At this time DBMS Linter was launched. In the late 1990s, Linter-VS 6.0 was developed as part of a project performed by RELEX for the Russian Ministry of Defense. The prototype of the system was Linter 5.7 (1999) developed by RELEX. Linter-VS 6.0 is available only for OS MSVS (mobile system of the armed forces). There also exists Linter-VS 6.0.1 developed in VNIINS based on [[PostgreSQL]8] 7.2 This system is also available for OS MSVS.<br>

Main applications of DBMS Linter[9]: government projects, real time systems, embedded systems[10] etc. DBMS Linter includes interfaces for the majority of popular development tools. DBMS Linter is the only system in its class certified[11] as compliant with Class 2 security requirements for data protection from unauthorized access[12] and Level 2 of undocumented features[13] absence control requirements for СВТ.

RelX Embedded, a compact American/Japanese-developed version of Linter is implemented in [[Sony]] products, including a Linter phone ([[Sony Ericsson SO903i]]),<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.linter.jp/topics/20070521.html | title=組込みシステム向けRDB「Linter」、ソニー・エリクソン製携帯電話「SO903i」「SO703i」に採用 : Linter.jp | publisher = Brycen Company Inc | date = 2007-05-21 | accessdate=2007-07-09}}</ref> as well as a [[Kenwood Corporation|Kenwood]] Navigation System ("HDD[Smá:t]Navi Emotional Sound" HDV-990 and HDV-790).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://relexus.com/pr/pr_020907.shtml |title=Company/FAQ - RelX: |publisher=RelXUS Inc |date=2007-02-06 |accessdate=2007-07-09 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070503005640/http://www.relexus.com/pr/pr_020907.shtml |archivedate=2007-05-03 |deadurl=yes |df= }}</ref>

On June 2, 2015, the Russian Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media issued the «Infrastructure Software Import Substitution Expertise Protocol», в котором in which the project «Creating the DBMS Linter independent domestic technology stack providing effective substitution of third-party vendors and implementation of the full range of new generation automated systems» is on the 2nd place in the «Database Management Systems» nomination. Среди отечественных организаций, допущенных к реализации работ, указываются Among the domestic organizations eligible for implementation of projects there are RELEX Research and Development Center, Diasoft Platform, Technoserv Group etc.[14]

On March 18, 2016, the Russian Software Expert Council of the Russian Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media included DBMS Linter in the Uniform register of Russian software programs for computing devices and databases (Russian Software Register). The order was signed by Minister of digital development, communications and mass media Nikolay Nikiforov.[15]

== Differences between Linter and Linter-VS ==

Linter and Linter VS are two different DBMSs.

During the late 1990s, RELEX developed DBMS Linter-VS 6.0 as part of projects for the Russian Ministry of Defense. The system was based on the commercial version of DBMS Linter 5.7 developed by RELEX in 1999.

The system is not to be confused with DBMS Linter-VS (starting from version 6.0.1) developed by VNIINS for OS MSVS based on PostgreSQL 7.4, 8.4 и 9.2[16].

Linter-VS 6.0[17] is available only for OS MSVS.

== Current State of Linter ==

Current stable version: 6.0.17.53. Release date: 15. 02. 2018
