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 ...
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 ...
Distributed Data Management Architecture (DDM) is IBM's open, published software architecture for creating, managing and accessing data on a remote computer. DDM was initially designed to support record-oriented files; it was extended to support hierarchical directories, stream-oriented files, queues, and system command processing; it was further extended to be the base of IBM's Distributed ...
IBM Z Anomaly Analytics with Watson collects SMF data from multiple IBM Z systems and subsystems, including IBM Db2 for z/OS, IBM CICS Transaction Server for z/OS and IBM MQ for z/OS, uses historical IBM Z metric and log data to build a model of normal operational behavior, and analyzes real-time operational data through comparison with the ...
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 ...
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.
IBM TXSeries for Multiplatforms is a distributed CICS (Customer Information Control System) online transaction processing (OLTP) environment for mixed language applications. TXSeries was introduced by IBM's Transarc subsidiary in 1997 and bundled CICS version 2.1.2 with Encina , MQSeries middleware , Lotus Domino Go web server, and other software.
While there are other industrial-strength transaction processing systems, notably IBM's own CICS and IMS, TPF's specialty is extreme volume, large numbers of concurrent users, and very fast response times. For example, it handles VISA credit card transaction processing during the peak holiday shopping season. [3] [2]
