OpenEdge RDBMS provides industry-leading performance, scalability, and reliability. Its superior, highly-flexible data storage capabilities allow multiple clients to access the same data (Progress 4GL, SQL access via ODBC and JDBC) enabling easy integration with SQL and Java applications, such as Business Intelligence and OLAP tools. OpenEdge RDBMS simplifies maintenance and administration with self-configuring and self-optimizing capabilities to the extent that most deployment sites do not need a single DBA. A low total cost of ownership means greater ROI for the business.
OpenEdge RDBMS features online administration and backup tools to reduce planned downtime. It delivers high availability with data replication, automatic crash recovery, advanced backup recovery, and cluster failover. OpenEdge RDBMS easily scales to handle thousands of simultaneous users and high traffic loads, providing fast user response time regardless of how many users are connected.
There are three product editions of the OpenEdge RDBMS to address critical database storage and management issues.
