An integrated database system for performing data processing utilizing
plural types of databases. A Meta level system 15 includes a script
interpreter 8 which interprets an inquiry represented by a script form
which has been addressed to a database to issue a primitive corresponding
to the inquiry and combines replies represented by a primitive form
received from plural types of databases 11. A local database system 14
includes a primitive processor 9 which transforms the primitive into a
control command corresponding to the type of the database 11, outputs the
transformed command to the plural types of databases 11, and replies to
the Meta level system 15 with the process result represented by the
primitive form.
