1080.0. "ADABAS NATURAL help needed!" by ZPOVC::SHANYONG () Mon Feb 03 1992 06:12

Hi all,

	Need some help on ADABAS NATURAL. Can't seem to find anyone who knows
anything on it here.

	I have a customer running ADABAS NATURAL application on IBM. They have
to do a multi-mellion dollar upgrade on the IBM, and they seem to have to do
that every 2-3 years.

	They have now ask us for an alternative solution on VAX. Their
requirement is keeping ADABAS NATURAL either

	   1) to have client-server type solution
           
	   Having IBM as backend and VAX front-end 4GL.

	0r 2) Running ADABAS NATURAL on VAX and having integration to IBM which
includes database online update.

	Question is 1) Can ADABAS NATURAL implement client server?
                    2) Are the above solutions possible?
                    3) If yes, which will be a better solution? What are the
                       pros and cons

	Hope someone can help me or direct me to the right person. I can't get
any help from ADABAS distributor locally.
