Adabas System Coordinator for Open Systems is a component technology framework that enables multiple Software AG products to communicate freely within processes, across processes and across networks simultaneously. This technology framework currently underwrites the following products:

• Data Archiving for Adabas

• Adabas Vista for Open Systems

In addition, Adabas System Coordinator for Open Systems enables distributed product processing to take place seamlessly across complex enterprises where operating systems and architectures often differ.

There are two basic runtime components:

Client

The client component enables multiple products in parallel to integrate into the Adabas client world according to the configuration you set, dynamically. Adabas Vista for Open Systems is one such product which utilizes this component.

Daemon

The daemon component manages multiple product services. Daemons run collaboratively within a network infrastructure referred to as a Group. A Group consists of one or more daemons running within one or more computers. Data Archiving for Adabas is one such product which utilizes this component.
