[HierarchicalDataBase]s are a form of DataBase predating [RelationalDataBase]s and [PostRelationalDataBase]s but still used in places where applications have and need for an indexed database of relatively complex data. Recently [HierarchicalDataBase]s have been loosing ground/marketshare to [XMLDataBase]s. The two OpenSource implmentations are [BerkeleyDB] and [GDBM], which both implement the [UNIX] dbm interface and can be used (almost) interchangably. The [Windows] registry is also a [HierarchicalDataBase]. [LDAP] is a [HierarchicalDataBase] access standard, in much the same way that [SQL] is a [RelationalDataBase] access standard.
