CICS Transaction Server (CICS TS) sits at the head of the CICS family and provides services that extend or replace the functions of the operating system. These services can be more efficient than the generalized operating system services and also simpler for programmers to use, particularly with respect to communication with diverse terminal ...
Tuxedo (Transactions for Unix, Extended for Distributed Operations) is a middleware platform used to manage distributed transaction processing in distributed computing environments. Tuxedo is a transaction processing system or transaction-oriented middleware, or enterprise application server for a variety of systems and programming languages.
On gaining control from the CICS Program Control Program (PCP), a "pseudo macro level" environment was established consisting of a pointer to a (unique) pseudo "Common System Area" (CSA), a pointer to a Transaction Control Area plus Transaction Work Area (TCA+TWA) and a pseudo Terminal Control Terminal Entry (TCTTE) and other artifacts of a ...
IBM CICS Transaction Gateway provides secure access to CICS from Java, Java EE, .NET Framework, C and C++ applications, using Internet protocols (for example TCP/IP). CICS Transaction Gateway also includes the same capabilities as IBM CICS Universal Client. There are three products in the CICS Transaction Gateway family: CICS Transaction ...
IBM Customer Information Control System (CICS) – 1969. A transaction manager designed for rapid, high-volume online processing, CICS originally used standard system datasets, but now has a connection to the IBM Db2 relational database system. Runs on OS/360 and successors and DOS/360 and successors, IBM AIX, VM, and OS/2.
RACF (IBM's mainframe security software product) – Sysplex-wide RVARY and SETROPTS commands; PDSE file sharing; Multisystem VLFNOTE, SDUMP, SLIP, DAE; Resource Measurement Facility (RMF) – Sysplex-wide reporting; CICS – uses XCF to provide better performance and response time than using VTAM for transaction routing and function shipping.
First, the nature of the mainframe software environment changed. Application subsystems for database and transaction processing (CICS and IMS and Oracle on System 370) and application generators became the focus of mainframe users' application development. Significant parts of the language became irrelevant because of the need to use the ...
However, proprietary transaction-processing environments such as IBM's CICS are still very popular, [citation needed] although CICS has evolved to include open industry standards as well. The term extreme transaction processing (XTP) was used to describe transaction processing systems with uncommonly challenging requirements, particularly ...
