COBOL Edition Enhance Your COBOL Applications with c-treeRTG COBOL Edition c-treeRTG COBOL Edition is a plug & play option that empowers COBOL applications by replacing the native file system of COBOL compilers with a more robust, comprehensive, solution. • FairCom's c-treeRTG COBOL Edition • Implementing RTG COBOL Edition modernizes record-oriented COBOL requires no changes to existing COBOL applications by providing a bridge code, no duplication of data, and no between COBOL and SQL standards, significant architectural changes. Existing thereby opening up their COBOL data to applications benefit from a new file system the web, cloud, and mobile devices. offering transaction processing, enhanced scalability, and recoverability while greatly • RTG COBOL Edition allows users to expanding data availability. leverage and preserve their investments in COBOL by integrating their existing • RTG COBOL Edition brings instant value COBOL applications with a modern and lowers risk by enabling users to database that preserves the performance immediately start a phasing migration and benefits of COBOL, while conforming project to a new COBOL platform instead to industry standards. of a "big bang," high risk, all-or-nothing conversion Seamless Solution for COBOL Applications This plug & play solution allows your COBOL applications to immediately benefit from the following: • Robust data management: c-treeRTG • User access: Control user access and COBOL Edition Server provides several high- permissions, view current connections, and availability features, such as full transaction see files that are being accessed by specific log, automatic recovery, and limited dynamic users to prevent ghost locks. dump for integrated backup capabilities. • Security: Natively implemented data • Full administrative tools set: Allows you to encryption ranges from simple masking to monitor, manage, configure, and fine-tune advanced encryption. one or more c-treeRTG COBOL Edition • Flexible configuration: Configurable data servers. Graphical tools to view and and index caches; data file locations; logs; manipulate database structure, files etc. schemas, tables, and records. • Concurrent access to records and files: • Support for multi-length records and Manages multiple levels of locks and redefines: There is no need to duplicate or provides native support for the various forms distribute the data into multiple tables. of file opening used in COBOL programs. • Shared memory: No network latency for installations with the client and server on the same machine. • Memory File support: Speedy access to non-persistent data such as temporary tables. • Outstanding performance: Preserves the speedy I/O you are accustomed to in your COBOL applications. No need for a slower SQL connection with its added overhead of query optimization. COBOL COBOL API SQL Clients isCOBOL, Micro Focus, AcuCOBOL...
