Arbutus provides direct, efficient access to Adabas tables for a variety of applications including query, migration and data warehousing solutions.
Arbutus' Adabas driver is unique because of its ability to not only access Adabas, but to join it with other Adabas tables, as well as different data formats, such as DB2, IMS, and VSAM, with no additional infrastructure required. Users receive one view of the data, even when pulling data from multiple sources.
When used with Arbutus LegacyLinkTM middleware, Adabas data can be integrated with Windows and web-based applications and databases.
