Datatek --  Expanding the Possibilities
 
Datatek/SQL Family   home > products > datatek/sql family 
Datatek's Datatek/SQL product line provides a migration path to an Open Systems environment for Data General (DG) DG/SQL users. The product line includes 
  • Datatek/SQL, a high-performance, highly reliable DG/SQL compatible relational data manager
  • Datatek/SQL-Net, a connectivity product that allows the interoperability between databases on multiple Datatek/SQL systems from within an application; 
  • and Datatek/SQL-Loader, a set of utilities that allows the user to create and load data from various file formats into any major vendor's SQL database.

Migrated DG/SQL applications allow companies to retain their investment made in the development of applications and the training of end users. The new source code will be very similar to the DG/SQL source code, thereby allowing programmers to be immediately productive in the new Open Systems environment. End users will also be immediately productive, since they will continue to work with the same applications. Additionally, database administrators will not need to learn a new set of tools and tuning parameters, since the utilities are the same as with DG/SQL. Realize the cost benefits of Open Systems while continuing to take advantage of the high performance features of DG/SQL by migrating today.
