The system and documents can be accessed by different teams within RCN and this means they are no longer as reliant on us as they were in the past."

"It wasn't just a case of translating each COBOL record to a database table; we had to use the existing Life System's SQL Server Schema and match the items to the COBOL definitions. The flexibility afforded by the metadata layer, and the assistance provided during our initial testing and development, was exceptional. The method of intercepting the COBOL I/O at runtime meant that we didn't have to make any changes to the COBOL sources, which was vital as we wanted a quick, easy and non-intrusive method to access the new database."

"In recent years we have made two significant business acquisitions which has helped increase our annual sales from £30m to £90m and Exchequer absorbed all the extra transactions with very little effort."
