Arbutus Technology
The Arbutus solution is simple to implement and deploy, giving organizations
flexibility in how they provide access to their legacy
data. The separate components of the solution work in concert
to provide a single unified view of your data.
There are just three components:
Each of these components installs easily, and even the mainframe
server requires only a minimum of IT support. You need no
additional components or infrastructure (from Arbutus or
others), even when your needs involve combining data from
multiple disparate sources.
Each of our packages is built as a combination of these components.
LegacyLink™
LegacyLink™ provides
any Windows application, including end-user, server or
web service, seamless access to any server data. Because
the ODBC standard is used, this data is also fully compatible
with other data interfaces, such as OLE/DB, JDBC or .NET.
Analyzer
Analyzer is a Windows
based end-user tool that accesses server data. It is used
to create data definitions that are utilized throughout
the product suite. As well, Analyzer is itself a full featured
query and analysis tool, providing a wide variety of reporting
and analysis capabilities.
Arbutus Servers
These servers provide data access and application processing
support for both LegacyLink™ and Analyzer.
- The Mainframe
(zSeries) Server provides access to virtually
all mainframe data sources, and allows the transparent
joining of data from disparate sources
- The AS/400
(iSeries) Server provides access to DB2,
IFS, flat and spool files and allows the transparent
joining of data from disparate sources
- Open Servers are
fully compatible with all legacy data
types, with no transformations required, and can be used
as an application server where mainframe loads are high
