Why
is D3 Such a Powerful Solution?
D3®
is a powerful solution because it is a full featured, high-performing
Database Management System and it is:
- Web-enabled:
The D3 database management system can read and
write to web pages in real time.
- Secure:
Multilevel security supports user and account passwords and
file access restrictions.

to learn: Because the D3 system was designed
to be used by non-technical personnel, D3 includes
a powerful English-like query language called AQL for creating
reports.
- Scalable:
The D3 database management system works comfortably
with one to thousands of users.
 Multidimensional:
Transcending the limitations of the two-dimensional relational
database of the 1990s, Raining Data offers a Pick database
model that accommodates "real-world" data. These multivalues
and subvalues permit stacking of data or data record keys
within a field.- Limitless:
Files may consist of an unlimited number of records. Records
may have up to 2 billion fields. Fields may be up to 2GB (numeric
or string). A process may open up to 32,000 files.
- Open
and mobile: The Pick data model allows
agencies from disparate locations to simultaneously access
the database securely from remote locations all around the
world.
- Tried
and tested in over 2,000 real-world applications.
- Microsoft
compatible: Word, Excel, SQL Server read and
write D3 with Microsoft ODBC - Microsoft C++ programs
can use D3 to read and write the D3
database - Microsoft Visual Basic.
- Hardware
independent: Runs on most major systems like NT,
UNIX, Sun Solaris, Linux, etc.
- Dynamic:
Fields require no length restrictions or data type. Adding
additional fields to a file does not require reformatting.
- Importable/Exportable:
Import/Export features facilitate movement of data between
environments. Files can be maintained where most often used,
and transferred to the other environment when needed.
- Efficient:
It fits in 4 megabytes, runs multiple users in 64 megabytes.
