Abstract

Database technology is highly developed for the many uses that it is employs; although, tomorrow will hold new challenges and demands that it is ill-equipped to accomplish. The rigors and demands of the current Information Age pushes information systems to develop more universal solutions not pre-established on the proprietary demands of capitalistic conceptions. In the Information Age, the ever-increasing need for more data processing capabilities becomes inherent with the times, and with the addition of the Digital Age, it is assumed that increased data processing will continue to be conducted by discrete electronic computing systems and the many forms that they will take. The continued development of more efficient data models, and the database systems designed to leverage them, will become the chariot bringing forth the climax of the current times and the dawning of new endeavors for human curiosity and our willingness to learn and explore ever further into the beyond. Tackling these issues is the direct purpose of the LISA Universal Informationbase System (the LISA Informationbase), to effectively integrate data of diverse variations and in a semi-ubiquitous structure to increase data automation of information content for use by our patrons in a powerful database management technology. Surveyed in this chapter is a review of this driving technology and its applications, covering the NITA Methodology Stage-I, Stage-II, and Stage-III in its developmental process.
