• A proven, high performance object database that makes the storage, retrieval and traversal of complex object models transparent
• An object manager and application servers that provide automatic object caching and powerful distributed processing capabilities.

JADE is an object-oriented programming language that has an integrated object oriented database management system.  It is an end-to-end development environment, which allows applications to be developed in one language from the database server down to the clients.  The JADE technology is robust and secure technology that promotes low cost advantages of commodity hardware and the Internet for e-business success while meeting the rigors of data storage and processing for organizations with large databases.

Integrated Database Management System (DBMS)

The JADE database comes complete with its own fully integrated JADE database management system and has full roll-forward and transaction roll-back recovery, with offsite backup and automatic power failure recovery.  The JADE database provides these benefits and features for use on modern, high-performance hardware platforms.

Abel Integration with JADE

Abel is fully integrated into the JADE database and database management system.  Full integration isolates the database from the Windows environment, reducing the risk of database corruption from an external source.  Full integration means greater transaction processing speed with no interfacing to slow data transfer.
