  Enterprise application development should deliver benefits to the organisation in a timely and cost effective way.  datb's approach dramatically shortens timescales, reduces costs and lessens the risk of failure.

datb offers a real alternative to the business constraints imposed by off-the-shelf packages and lengthy, expensive and risk-laden bespoke development.

kinodb is datb's database development and deployment application.  kinodb enables developers and users to work together to identify and refine requirements and deliver flexible and integrated applications.  Scalable from a simple application to a corporate data architecture, it offers the following advantages:

Case studies
