vCOBOL Enterprise software

vCOBOL Enterprise is a powerful environment for developing and deploying business-critical COBOL applications across Linux®, Microsoft® Windows® and UNIX® systems. A cost-effective alternative to legacy mainframe and Micro Focus® COBOL dialects, vCOBOL is well-suited to support migrated interactive and batch application environments.

vCOBOL Enterprise provides a cost-effective alternative to legacy COBOL dialects on scalable open systems environments.

Core components of the vCOBOL suite include a powerful COBOL compiler; a streamlined, portable run-time environment; a graphical, source-level debugger, and a range of data access and migration utilities to simplify transitions to the vCOBOL platform.

Supporting the ANSI-85 standard and legacy COBOL dialects, vCOBOL is well-suited for running mission-critical interactive and batch environments, as well as standalone legacy COBOL application deployments. Extensive COBOL dialect support makes it easy to migrate existing applications with little or no application code change.

With vCOBOL, all development and debugging tasks are performed in a familiar, flexible and user-friendly COBOL environment -- no retraining or rewriting code required. To optimize critical runtime performance, Veryant has shifted much of the 'heavy lifting' of operational analysis and execution instructions performed by alternative COBOL platforms during runtime, into the highly efficient vCOBOL Compiler.

The modular design of vCOBOL Enterprise supports a wide range of data access options. All common COBOL file organizations and record types are supported, including Indexed, Relative, Binary Sequential, and Line Sequential file organizations, with fixed and variable length records. vCOBOL has a built-in ESQL compiler that translates embedded SQL (EXEC SQL) statements to JDBC calls, and also supports Pro*COBOL and DB2 Precompilers.

The vCOBOL platform also includes Veryant JISAM, a 100% Java-based ISAM file system that enables fast and efficient access to data files.
