this is from the users' manual:
"Development of the independent SAP DB software was begun in 1997 on the
basis of the
ADABAS D software."
also if u search for "SAP DB History" on google and get a cached copy of the
same history page u'll see more details:
"Installed ADABAS D customer base gets serviced by SAP AG "
"SAP AG resells ADABAS D under the name "SAP DB" "
"Fork of the ADABAS D code base "
seems someone is ashamed to mention ADABAS...
