Java is a wide-spread language. Most of the database vendors have recognised this fact and are offering various database drivers that are compliant to the JDBC standard. Adhering to the JDBC standard makes your application independent from the database type. Therefore in order to change your database type you require the appropriate JDBC driver. Javahas a serious advantage over Centura in this area.

At this time, we have successfully tested our framework on Oracle, SQL Server and Sybase with 9 different JDBC drivers.

We support almost all of the Centura database-related features, including bind and into variables, not available in Java enviroment. You can see the list of supported functions here.

Note: After migration from Centura to Java, you will gain an access to powerful Java database solutions (JDBC, Entity Beans, JDO, various Object-Relational Mapping tools and so on).
