Database Tool Maker (Resolution Software) joins the System i market
Read the ITJUNGLE article at
http://www.itjungle.com/tfh/tfh121007-story01.html
Let's discuss the entire article. Points and counter-points.

In the opinion of many programmers who are perfectly happy writing RPG
and COBOL programs, there is nothing wrong with the DDS approach to
creating databases. The problem is, nothing else in the IT universe
speaks DDS. Everyone else uses Structured Query Language (SQL) to
control access to databases. And turning a database created with DDS
into an SQL-generated database--with its inherent openness, speed,
built-in data integrity, and so on--requires a long, tedious conversion.
No one has wanted to tackle the SQL conversion problem. But Resolution
Software, with its Xcase database products, does.
