The Relational Data Framework (RDF) facility lets you use Structured Query Language (SQL) statements to manage the large amounts of system information required by automation rules and OPS/REXX programs. Instead of using large sets of variables, use the RDF to collect system information, organize it into a relational table containing rows and columns of related data, and retrieve related system information by selecting it from a particular row or column.
We chose SQL to manage automation data because of the wide popularity of SQL with mainframe and PC users. The RDF consists of relational SQL tables plus a subset of the SQL language that conforms to American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standards. If you already know SQL, you will be able to use its CA OPS/MVS subset right away.
