I was going to tell you to look on comp.databases because I could not find
it at first because you put it in lower case letters.  Tisk tisk :-)

name:           EDB, the Emacs database
version:        1.17
interfaces:     Emacs, Emacs Lisp
multiuser:      no
transactions:   no
distributed:    no
query language: Emacs Lisp
limits:         same as for Emacs -- typically 8 or 32 MB
robustness:     fairly high -- currently being used for mission-critical data
description:    EDB provides simple database access in a "user-friendly" Emacs
                environment for flat files.  Extensions for linking records and
                relational-like operations exist, and further extensions are
                easy to make.
                EDB is documented by a 110-page manual, complete with indices
