 | Highlights
IBM UniData® is a best-of-breed, extended relational data server for embedding in vertical solutions -- ideal for markets which target small- to medium-businesses.
- Highly scalable, low-cost data management system.
- Support for Web services protocols including XML and SOAP.
- Includes UniObjects for .NET -- a native, high performance API for developing in the Microsoft® .NET framework.
- Robust features for high availability, failover and data replication available.
- Includes innovative features for achieving optimum response times, ease of management and low total-cost-of-ownership (TCO).
- Standards-based SQL interfaces such as JDBC, OLEDB and ODBC that support the full nesting capability of the data server engine.
Benefits
- Extended relational architecture requires fewer tables whose size is dynamically managed by the data server. UniData sites require list data server administration with smaller sites having zero or part-time resources allocated.
- Shortened development cycles due to ease of data server design along with tightly integrated development environment.
- UniData supports a broad range of information management applications with excellent performance and reliability. As a result, a large number of industry solution providers use UniData to support their applications. This allows the customer to more quickly satisfy their requirements by buying, rather than building, solutions.
Features
- Connection Pooling (CP) enables developers to design and deploy applications that do not use persistent connections to the data server, such as in a Web environment. Connection Pools are authorized separately and do not consume data server licenses.
- Device Licensing for Server Edition offers the ability to customize the number of connections per device such as a user's PC. This provides greater flexibility when fewer than 10 connections per device are required and the additional value of Enterprise Edition is not an alternative.
- External Data server Access (EDA) provides the ability to store one or more UniData files on an external data server such as IBM DB2® Universal Data server, in a manner that is transparent to the application.
- Network File Architecture (NFA) offers local access to data on remote UniData servers.
- Recoverable File System (RFS) provides recoverability in case of system or media failures.
- Transaction Processing (TP) semantics provide atomicity, consistency, isolation and durability (ACID) properties for the data server.
