Easy talking the difference between ExpertSystems and relational databases
is:
-RDB handles uniform and well structured data
-ES can handle ill-structured data
-ES should be able to explain the reason or better the way
to come to particular answers
-RDB did exactly what you ask for
(Be sure that you ask for what you want to ask)
You are right you can use RDB for some knowledge based system.
(If the data is well structured). I did that for a component information
database to classify component according to a set of rules.
