Ingres OpenROAD – The Tool for Rapid Application Development
Ingres OpenROAD is a rapid application development and flexible deployment solution. With Ingres OpenROAD,
developers can quickly build and deploy sophisticated high performance and high availability business applications on
a variety of platforms, accessing a broad range of data sources. As a result, you can react to business changes faster and

Enterprise Database Connectivity – Data Access to All Sources in the Enterprise
Most businesses have multiple database platforms. To allow simplified access to all your data, Ingres offers connectivity
options to other relational databases as well as legacy mainframe systems. Ingres Enterprise Access allows users and
applications to access data in any database as though it were in a single repository – whether the data resides in Oracle,
Sybase, SQL Server, or another database.
Companies also have many legacy mainframe databases – and want seamless access from CICS, for example, to Linux. This
access to all information reduces IT costs and improves productivity. Ingres EDBC, our mainframe enterprise database
connectivity solution, can bridge information that would otherwise be captive in your mainframe systems with other data
sources in your environment.
