About FairCom RTG
FairCom RTG modernizes COBOL and Btrieve applications by seamlessly replacing their native file systems with FairCom's advanced database engine, enhancing reliability, scalability, and performance without altering existing code. It enables real-time read/write access to live data through modern APIs, including JSON and SQL, facilitating business analytics and reporting without additional coding. With features like hot backups, automatic recovery, and ACID-compliant transactions, data integrity and uptime are significantly improved. FairCom RTG supports vertical scaling to thousands of users and horizontal scaling through replication for reporting, failover, and availability. The latest version introduces a JSON DB API, allowing simple JSON commands to manage COBOL data, and Hot Alter Table functionality for immediate schema modifications without rewriting records.

Assembler Code Refactoring
Rocket Assembler Code Refactoring is a specialized modernization solution that automatically restructures legacy Assembler code into structured pseudocode or modern languages such as COBOL, C, or Java without altering external behavior, enabling faster, lower-risk modernization and improved maintainability. Assembler code is notoriously dense, poorly documented, and supported by a shrinking pool of specialists, making maintenance slow, costly, and error-prone; this product addresses those challenges by delivering semantics-preserving, auditable transformations that reduce outages and secure modernization without sacrificing stability. Its fully automated core engine uses mathematically guaranteed logic equivalence to eliminate conversion risk, dramatically accelerating projects while ensuring that refactored outputs are semantically identical to the original code.

Rocket Relativity
Rocket® Relativity® is a data access and modernization solution that brings relational database capabilities to existing COBOL applications without requiring changes to the original code or data structures. It enables organizations to access COBOL data in real time by presenting traditional COBOL files as relational data sources, allowing developers and business users to query and analyze information using standard SQL through ODBC or JDBC connectivity. This approach ensures that users work with the exact same live data as the COBOL application, rather than relying on replicated or outdated copies, preserving accuracy and consistency across systems. It supports integration with modern analytics and reporting tools such as Microsoft Excel, as well as business intelligence, data warehousing, and ETL processes, expanding the usability of legacy data across contemporary environments.
