The CONNX for D-ISAM module provides secure, real-time, read/write access to D-ISAM data sources on Windows, Solaris, HP-UX, AIX, Linux and other UNIX flavors. In conjunction with other CONNX modules, you can perform seamless joins between D-ISAM and most other databases.
In conjunction with other products in the CONNX suite, you can perform seamless joins between two or more supported disparate databases using ODBC, OLE DB, .NET and JDBC. CONNX for D-ISAM access is fast and efficient. With CONNX, a single metadata model can be created that spans all enterprise data sources and applications requiring data access. The result is an enterprise-wide view of data that provides a reusable standards-based frame- work for information access. To the user or application, data appears as if it existed in a single federated relational database.
The CONNX distributed SQL engine reduces the workload placed on the server by performing CPU-intensive operations where the CONNX client resides (Unix, Linux or Windows. i.e., remote desktop, Web and/or application server), while allowing the database engine to perform tasks for which it is best suited. CONNX directly imports D-ISAM metadata from COBOL copybooks or text files. CONNX supports ANSI SQL (Insert, Update, Select, and Delete); group by, distinct, aggregate (AVG, MIN, MAX, SUM, and COUNT), and all substring, string, date, conversion, and math functions. Nested inner and outer left/right joins are supported, as well as subqueries and correlated subqueries. CONNX also supports Unions and Insert/Select.
CONNX supports the creation of views, which facilitate hiding table relation- ships from the end user. CONNX Views facilitate the creation of heterogeneous joins between multiple disparate data- bases.
CONNX supports over 600 data types and performs bi-directional data conversions for data updates and retrieves.
CONNX for D-ISAM imports D-ISAM
metadata directly from COBOL copybooks, Powerhouse PDLs, and a CONNX Text
Specification file format into a CONNX Data Dictionary file (CDD).
The CDD provides additional field and table-level encryptable security by group or user, ensuring the security of sensitive information. CONNX also supports row
level security with CONNX Views. Addition- ally, the CONNX Data Dictionary is encrypted to secure sensitive information.
The CONNX unique Rotated Array Technology makes manipulation of large arrays simple. CONNX accomplishes this by returning each column of the array as a separate row.
ODBC Full Compliance (level 2) ; JDBC Type 3 Driver; OLE DB 2.5 Driver; NET 2.0 Driver and above
The CONNX Data Dictionary supports multiple record layouts of the same D-ISAM
file, based on a “record type” field.
