  Distributed Data Management
  
     <protocol, database> (DDM) An IBM data protocol
     architecture for data management services across distributed
     systems in an SNA environment.
  
     DDM provides a common data management language for data
     interchange among different IBM system platforms.
  
     Products supporting DDM include AS/400, System/36,
     System/38 and CICS/DDM.
  
     On the AS/400, 	DDM controls remote file processing.
     DDM enables application programs running on one AS/400
     system to access data files stored on another system
     supporting DDM. Similarly, other systems that have DDM can
     access files in the database of the local AS/400 system.
     DDM makes it easier to distribute file processing between two
     or more systems.
