I am looking for a product to access an Adabas DB on an MVS system in
real time from a VAX. I will be using Rdb on the VAX, but need to pull
data from the MVS Adabas system. Any ideas?

I believe Software AG Does have Remote Access from VAX/VMS to ADABAS on MVS. What you need is a component called ADANET (I'm not sure about the name) that allows VMS programs to read and write directly to the Mainframe database. You may check new EDA/SQL product which belongs to Rdb access group of products, I think that ADABAS is one of the 40+ databases you can access by this tool. regards, Arie Levy | |||||

Software AG sell products that run on the Vax and communicate with the
IBM through (for example) an SNA Gateway. These are all part of the
Net-work family.
You must buy Net-work for VMS plus an appropriate driver (e.g. Net-work
for SNA Gateway).
This then allows you to write 3GL programs on the Vax that issue calls
to the IBM database (or to a local Adabas database on the Vax).
If 3GL programs are not wanted then you can use Natural (VMS) -
Software Ag's 4GL. This can read/write to Rdb and Adabas (MVS) within
the same program using the Net-work products.
I believe EDA/SQL supports Adabas but would be very slow to use if real
time response is needed.
