Introducing c-treeRTG V3

c-treeRTG is a data management solution that allows organizations to easily modernize and integrate existing COBOL systems. Our V3 release includes many new features to make this process even easier than in previous versions. Plus, many new powerful enhancements to enrich these vital applications.

“Since adopting c-treeRTG at Beaver Street Fisheries, we are now able to run BI reports and queries in real-time, straight from the COBOL data files. This tool allowed us to dramatically reduce the time needed to extract the information from our COBOL system to support the business decision process.“

Scott Lane, CIO Beaver Street

Why c-treeRTG?

Modernization Benefits

Extends the life of a COBOL system
- Preserves years of investments in COBOL systems
No COBOL code changes, reducing modernization costs and TCO
Integration with modern technologies
Potential for performance enhancements
Real-time read/write access to COBOL data
Ability to write new modules in modern languages
- Reduces reliance on COBOL developers
Access to accurate real-time data with BI tools
Improved data integrity
Automatic recovery
Roll forwards and roll backwards
Elimination of data corruption
Hot backups

Migration Benefits

New application development with modern languages supported by c-treeRTG interfaces, like Python, PHP, Java, .NET or C applications over a more comfortable timeline for a safe migration strategy.
Multiple migration strategies are available:
- Freeze COBOL development and start developing new modules in your new language(s) of choice.
- Share common files across different platforms and systems like reports and data analytics, reducing the dependency
  on development in COBOL for these systems.
- Convert file-by-file as needed. With c-treeRTG, you can choose which files to migrate, and when. This mitigates migration risks and makes it possible to schedule a phased migration as it makes sense for the business.
