Dyalog has developed a prototype of a framework which allows your application to look, taste and smell like a relational database. The SQAPL Server allows reporting on live APL data and analytical output from tools like Microsoft Excel or - Access, Crystal Reports - and virtually any programming language - in fact, any client application which can use ODBC, JDBC, ADO or ADO.NET. The interface fully supports SQL, including database updates and inserts, your APL functions as "stored procedures", and creation/modification of tables (DDL statements) – and requires very little SQL expertise to set up.
