AIM*Historian uses flat files to store all of its data since they provide
much faster insertion and query support.
AIM*Historian does supply an ODBC front-end that makes the data appear as if
it is in a simple relational database.
AIM*Historian also provides an export facility that would allow you to load
data into a database. It's not fast enough (because the databases are not)
to use as a mechanism to store large volumes of real-time data. However, it
is useful for reduced data.
