Closest you'll get is, probably, BerkeleyDB from

Is there any open source implementation of a hierarchical database like IMS
for Linux?

More likely here people are referring to ISAM as implemented in the

Well, considering that IBM bought Informix, it shouldn't be
all that difficult to lobby IBM for an s/390 Linux version of
the C-ISAM library.

C-ISAM has been available for Linux for S/390 for over a year. Note that
this is NOT the same as the ISAM we remember not so fondly from the
mainfram
What are the ISAM options on Linux/390 and Linux/86?

No, the only clone that ever existed was MicroFocus COBOL IMS which is/was

Access to IMS DB is possible using DB2 stored procs and ODBA. See

Ugh. What kind of IMS database (HIDAM, HISAM, HDAM, etc.)?

There is an application running on S390 written in COBOL using IMS Database.
This application could handle several millions of records.
I am looking around to see if this could be ported to a smaller platform to
handle several thousands of records at a reduced cost.
Is it doable if I chose to go
