Database mechanism
TNI 2 database (a.k.a the Storage) is a user-dedicated directory on the hard drive. Each inventoried asset is represented in it as a separate file of specific format.

It is possible to create several separate storages and switch between them at any time. Asset-related data can be copied to another storage by copying the corresponding file.
