Is Clarity a database-based software?

No. Clarity Chromatography Software is a file-based system, not a database-based application.

All chromatograms, methods, sequences, calibrations, and other documents are stored as individual files within a structured directory tree. This provides transparency, flexibility, and easy access to all data without requiring a database engine.

Despite not using a database, Clarity can still be used in regulated environments. When properly configured, it meets the requirements of 21 CFR Part 11 and other data integrity guidelines.

More information is available in the guide Clarity in Regulated Environment (PDF) and on the dedicated page on the DataApex website.
