DBPronto Modernising Legacy Databases DBPronto allows you to rapidly replace legacy file systems with modern relational database management systems, such as Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL and Microsoft SQL Server. What does DBPronto offer? Whether your existing data is COBOL, C-ISAM, U/FOS or another legacy file handler, Advanced DBPronto can replace these files with modern Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS) such as Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL and DB2 – all without significant manual change to your source code. DBPronto is middleware that has been specifically designed to function between legacy applications and an RDBMS. For many legacy file handers, the DBPronto middleware layer intercepts the existing file I/O statements. For others, DBPronto implements a simple API that replaces existing file I/O. Features It can process multiple program requests without increasing the overhead on the database. This delivers high performance and scalability. >> High reliability – all RDBMS access is performed by a centralised process that can be local to the RDBMS, thus minimising network traffic. The DBPronto server can be configured and monitored centrally. Platform independence >> The DBPronto client is linked to your application and communicates with the DBPronto Server via TCP/IP. >> The application and the DBPronto client may be on one Windows, UNIX or Linux machine. Server-based architecture designed for: >> The DBPronto server and the RDBMS may be on another Windows, UNIX or Linux machine. >> High performance – the DBPronto Server is optimised for each type of database, making optimum use of indexes. Database design flexibility and control >> High scalability – the server-based architecture manages the number of database connections in use and the throughput of transactions. >> Legacy file data types are mapped to SQL data types. Application Migration and Modernisation "We chose the breakthrough technology associated with the DBPronto product because it is a complete solution that didn’t require any code changes, needed minimal programmer training and offered exceptional performance These benefits have dramatically reduced the project duration, risk and cost, surpassing all our expectations.” Raymund Gordon > Vice President Information Technology > Reserve National Insurance >> DBPronto maps legacy data structures to RDBMS structures using metadata files. FAC T SHEE T DBPronto >> COBOL OCCURS can be flattened or can be mapped to a sub-table. >> COBOL REDEFINES are described in the metadata and processed by the DBPronto server. >> The XML format metadata files are created using an automated tool. Benefits Performance is optimised by adopting this elegant server-based architecture providing the following: >> Stateless transactions, increasing throughput and scalability. >> A graphical DBPronto Metadata Manager is used to view and maintain the metadata files. >> Database connection pooling improving performance and reducing system overheads. Locking >> Pre-prepared queries, providing maximum performance optimisation. >> DBPronto provides a Lock Server that supports all locking functionality in your legacy application. >> Lock management to mimic legacy application locks. >> The Lock Server API is provided for Java and .NET to facilitate update access to the RDBMS from new applications. Configuration >> Browser-based DBPronto Administrator for configuring and monitoring the DBPronto server. >> Locks can be viewed and managed from the DBPronto Administrator. >> Data type translation enabling data to be stored as native RDBMS data types, while preserving data types in legacy programs. Modernising existing legacy data to an RDBMS with DBPronto enables an organisation to: >> Improve data integrity and robustness. >> Implement database high availability solutions. >> Readily share data with other applications. >> Easily implement data warehousing and business intelligence solutions.
