Massachusetts General Hospital Utility Multi-Programming System (MUMPS), is a programming language that provides tools to support database management systems. MUMPS was originally only used by hospitals to access medical records. Now MUMPS is also used by other entities (such as banks, stock exchanges, travel agencies) where multiple users need to access the same databases at the same time.

Because MUMPS values are stored as text strings, you can share the same MUMPS database between disparate architectures, such as VAX, DEC Alpha, SUN, IBM PC and HP workstations.

Connector parts are the fields you configure to connect with a data source or target. The fields that are available depend on the connector you select. This is a source only connector. For a list of all parts for source connectors, see Specifying Source Connector, Parts, and Properties.
