Third-Party Sort Program Replacements

CoSort Version 9 ships with special libraries that offer faster, plug 'n' play sort libraries for the following third-party programs:

• ACUCOBOL-GT
• Clerity (UniKix) MBM and MTP (via SortCL)
• DB2 Loader
• Micro Focus
• SAS (Unix)
• Software AG Natural
• Unix (/bin/sort)

IRI also licenses optional plug 'n' play functions that leverage your current sort component interfaces and the more powerful CoSort engine in these ETL tools:

• IBM DataStage
• Informatica PowerCenter

Please ask your IRI agent for more information and a free trial that you can install subsequent to obtaining a CoSort package license.

Automatic metadata converters are available for your current file descriptions in DataStage (.dsx), Informatica (.xml). MITI's Metadata Integration Model Bridge (MIMB) software will convert your layouts to CoSort's data definitions for CoSort's SortCL program, as well as the compatible IRI products NextForm, and RowGen.

Most users also leverage CoSort's SortCL tool for large sorts, joins, aggregations, and reporting jobs in the file system. This helps you optimize and combine transforms and loads, and protect sensitive data fields.

Free legacy sort parm conversion tools are available to help you migrate your legacy sort metadata (e.g. SyncSort MVS or Unix) to CoSort's SortCL job scripts. For more information, see:
