uh yes and no. There is a sort of concept of that as what makes a filesystem work. But no, this isn't an RDMS, so no real ideas of columns and rows. With that said, you could create a type of database using just a filesystem by mapping file and directories and content to database concepts.

Perhaps if you supplied more info about what you are needing, somebody here could suggest an implementation.

File::Slurp::WithinPolicy(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			    File::Slurp::WithinPolicy(3pm)

NAME
File::Slurp::WithinPolicy - Applies filesystem policies to File::Slurp SYNOPSIS
use File::Slurp::WithinPolicy qw(:all); my $text = read_file( 'filename' ); my @lines = read_file( 'filename' ); write_file( 'filename', $text ); append_file( 'filename', $more_text ); overwrite_file( 'filename', $text ); my @files = read_dir( '/path/to/dir' ); DESCRIPTION
This provides the File::Slurp interface within a policy defined by File::Policy. By default, File::Policy is a no-op and this behaves identically to File::Slurp. System administrators may want to override the default File::Policy implementation to enforce a local filesys- tem policy (see File::Policy). FUNCTIONS
read_dir See "read_dir" in File::Slurp read_file See "read_file" in File::Slurp write_file See "write_file" in File::Slurp append_file See "append_file" in File::Slurp overwrite_file See "overwrite_file" in File::Slurp EXPORTS
By default, nothing is exported. The ":all" tag can be used to export everything. Individual methods can also be exported. SEE ALSO
