FairCom ISAM

FairCom ISAM documentation home

FairCom ISAM is a plug-and-play replacement for a Btrieve database. It natively supports Btrieve functionality at high speed and provides its many benefits without requiring you to rewrite any application code.

You only need to do two things:

Relink your existing application to the FairCom ISAM driver, which supports Btrieve C API opcodes, including extended functions for batch and filtering (large records are handled with blob chunk handling).

Run FairCom's command-line utility once to migrate your Btrieve files to FairCom's data file format.

FairCom ISAM breathes new life into existing applications for increased performance and modern capabilities, including SQL, JSON, messaging, event streaming, data change streaming, data replication, and more.

You can also create new applications in any programming language and use FairCom's JSON and SQL APIs to read and modify data simultaneously with existing Btrieve applications.
