Remote database access provides the ability to read or write to a bistatic database. In a bistatic configuration, the client program and database server reside on storage systems which are physically independent (or separate) from one another.

RDA is appropriate for remote access to a database in any context where lower layer transport protocols have already been established. RDA protocols have been shown to work properly in both OSI and Internet communications environments. The Internet RFC 1006 is the guide used for executing RDA over a TCP/IP connection.
