[[SAP AG]]'s [[MaxDB]] is based on ADABAS D version 6.1.15.57, licensed from Software AG in 1997, and originally sold as SAP DB. MaxDB is provided for use with SAP, as an alternative to other more costly RDBMS systems.

[[Star Division]] (and later [[Sun Microsystems]]) used Adabas D for its product [[StarOffice]], and the personal edition of Adabas D was included in [[SuSE Linux]].{{Update after|2010|11}} An Adabas D adapter was provided in [[OpenOffice.org]].
