Abstract
As an organization running DB2 Server for VSE&VM you probably knew it was time to modernize when – five years ago? Maybe ten? But it ran fine and the applications do what you need them to do, so it wasn’t a priority.
Unfortunately, nowadays skilled resources are getting harder to find and the technology is out of date. It’s not going to get easier to change.
It’s time to get started on the path to a modern database. Join us for a free webinar where DB2 Gold Consultant Frank C. Fillmore, Jr., will explain how organizations running legacy VM and VSE applications can protect their investment in custom business applications, while expanding their database technical capabilities with DB2 for z/Linux.
Takeaways:
- Technical advantages of DB2 for z/Linux
- Distributed Relational Database Architecture (DRDA) access to DB2 for z/Linux from VSE and VM applications:
- CICS
- z/VSE batch
- z/VM
- Simplify mid-tier applications currently using DB2 Connect
- Exploiting Hipersockets
- VSE VSAM Redirector eBusiness Connector
- Software cost savings (amazing!!)
- Integrated Facility for Linux (IFL)
