Hi, Does anyone has experience connection to an ADABAS Data Base on a mainframe? Any direction is appreciated. Thanks Eran

Thanks, I have tried composite before its a great oem. Yet a bit too much for just sending SQL queries. Is there known ODBC or OLEDB that can be used? Thanks again, Eran

Natural Adabas is a relational database system. It was initially designed for large IBM mainframe systems; it has been ported to numerous other platforms over the last few years such as several flavors UNIX including AIX. ADABAS stores its data in tables and thus is relational but also uses some non-relational techniques such as multiple values and periodic groups. Adabas has maintained its position as one of the world's fastest OLTP databases, offering 24x7 functioning, Parallel Sysplex support, and real-time replication capability, SQL and XML access and other leading edge capabilities. Historically, Adabas was used in conjunction with Software AG's programming language NATURAL, so that many legacy applications that use Adabas as a database on the back-end are also developed with NATURAL as well.
