The claim is made that: "Oracle is the world's first RDBMS." Surely, this is not the case. I am unsure which is the first but, amongst others, IBM System R and Logica Rapport were around before Oracle, I believe. Can someone clarify please? Geoff97 18:09, 1 Jan 2004 (UTC)
- Multics too claims to be the first RDBMS. We need a consensus.
- "...(RSI) was founded in 1979 and released Oracle V.2 as the world's first relational database.". [1]
- "Multics Relational Data Store (MRDS)... is believed to be the first relational database management system ...". [2]
