Specifies the functionality of a database server within a distributed open systems environment and specifies the communication service and protocol for accessing its capabilities. The communications capabilities are positioned in the Application Layer of the Reference Model of Open Systems Interconnection (OSI). This part of ISO/IEC 9579 complements ISO/IEC 9579-1 (RDA Generic) in order that the two parts together: (a) define the capabilities of an RDA SQL database server supporting dialogues with clients. (b) define a model of dialogues between the RDA SQL database server and remote users. (c) define a model of a dialogue between an RDA client and an RDA server. (d) define an abstract service for the RDA SQL ASE, which models the communications facilities supporting interaction between the RDA client and RDA server. (e) define the RDA SQL ASE protocol to support the RDA SQL Service. (f) define the characteristics of application-contexts which include the RDA SQL ASE. (g) define application-contexts that support remote database access using SQL: (1) RDA Basic application-context, (2) RDA TP application-context.
