CICS JS/Server


From the Vendor

Serve and use Open Source Javascript Libraries from CICS.

Open Source Javascript libraries have become popular because they make it easier to create, manage and operate modern web applications. Given the risks associated with allowing javascript to execute inside web browsers, using them with corporate business systems requires that complete control over these resources be exerted. What better way to exert that control than to bring these tools into the mainframe and serve them from there. 

CICS JS/Server is capable of serving several of the most popular Open Source Javascript libraries from CICS under z/OS. Doing so eliminates many of the potential risks associated with the use of these resources and allows for tried and trusted processes to be applied to their use, management and operation. Strategists and Chief Information Officers should like the risk reduction factor.

Open Source Javascript Libraries Supported:

  • JQuery & JQuery UI
  • Dojo Toolkit
  • Prototype
  • YUI Library
  • MooTools
  • Scriptaculous
  • D3JS
  • Rickshaw

CICS JS/Server is also capable of serving bespoke content and makes it possible to easily build manage and operate novel new CICS web applications. Strategists and Chief Technology Officers should like the efficiency gains provided by these features.

Features at a Glance

  • Supports IBM's CICS Transaction Server from version 3.1 onwards.
