SQL/MED
The SQL/MED, or Management of External Data, extension to the SQL standard is defined by ISO/IEC 9075-9:2003. SQL/MED provides extensions to SQL that define foreign-data wrappers and datalink types to allow SQL to manage external data. External data is data that is accessible to, but not managed by, an SQL-based DBMS. This standard can be used in the development of federated database systems.
Implementations
- PostgreSQL has support for some SQL/MED since version 9.1. 9.2 supports more.[1]
- LucidDB has support for SQL/MED.[2]
- MariaDB has support for SQL/MED with the CONNECT storage engine.[3] The implementation uses different syntax than the official standard.
- Farrago has support for SQL/MED.[4]
