Typhoon is a freely available relational database management system for the UNIX and OS/2 environments. The system works fine and is currently used in a number of professional applications in Denmark, some of them mission critical. The system was originally inspired by Raima's db_VISTA (today Raima Data Manager) but is relational rather than network based. Typhoon lacks some of db_VISTA's features, but also contains a number of nice features not found in db_VISTA.
