IBM Information Management System (IMS) is a joint hierarchical database and information management system with extensive transaction processing capabilities. == History == IBM designed the IMS with Rockwell and Caterpillar starting in 1966 for the Apollo program, where it was used to inventory the very large bill of materials (BOM) for the Saturn V moon rocket and Apollo space vehicle. The first "IMS READY" message appeared on an IBM 2740 terminal in Downey, California, on 14 August 1968.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 IMS and the Apollo program ) 〕 In the interim period, IMS has undergone many developments as IBM System/360 technology evolved into the current z/OS and System z9 and z10 technologies. For example, IMS now supports the Java programming language, JDBC, XML, and, since late 2005, web services. Vern Watts was IMS's chief architect for many years. Watts joined IBM in 1956 and worked at IBM's Silicon Valley development labs until his death on April 4, 2009.〔IBM IMS Newsletter ''(Volume 902 )''〕 He had continuously worked on IMS since the 1960s.〔Luongo, Chris et al.
