Adabas vs. InterSystems Caché

It's well suited for applications running on z/OS I wouldn't consider it for applications on other operating systems

It's definitely great for medical industries that need the vast amounts of features/security/performance, however if you need something simple then this would be too much. There is a learning curve, and if you come from more common database technologies, then there will be a lot of differences to handle. Simple database needs would be better fulfilled elsewhere, but Cache is for when you need to take the next step, whether that be in the volume, complexity, or security of ETL.

Adabas uses resources better than DB2, but it doesn't use newer features of the hardware or operating system.

I've only worked with products that do one thing before, but there's so much that Cache offers versus piecing different services together manually. Not only does the product offer a more robust tool-set, but the support is wonderful and I've never encountered a better vendor in any industry in terms of how well they interact with their customers and care about helping you solve your problems. They want you to grow and to get better.

• Every time we want to upgrade our computer, the pricing for adabas is a big concern

• Implementation time could be speeded up
• It is very flexible and attractive
