For connecting Glink, third-party emulations and your own applications to Bull mainframe systems Gallagher & Robertson offer two unbeatable solutions.

Ggate is a 100% software solution that allows you to replaces proprietary gateways or Bull front-ends with Open Systems gateways that support the same range of clients.

DGA (Direct GCOS Access) is a 100% software solution that users of G&R clients can license on their workstation in order to access Bull hosts directly, without passing through any kind of front-end or gateway.
