Nomad is a relational database and fourth-generation language (4GL), originally developed in the 70s by time-sharing vendor National CSS, Inc. Its widest use was in the 70s and 80s.
Nomad provided an interactive environment for data management and application development, including commands for database definition, data manipulation, and reporting. All components were accessible by and integrated through a database-oriented programming language. Unlike many data management tools of the day, which were geared to the needs of professional programmers in MIS departments, Nomad was particularly designed for (and sold to) application end-users in large corporations.
