Abstract
This IBM Redbooks publication illustrates the architectural choices you have when designing an information technology (IT) infrastructure with IBM WebSphere Application Server for z/OS and one or more back-end systems. This book shows you the pros and cons of using WebSphere Application Server with CICS, IMS, IBM WebSphere MQ and DB2.
Actually a presentation guide you can use, this book comes with presentation foils included in the additional material. This material helps clients, potential clients and IBM staff to visualize high-level solutions. For each connectivity choice we discuss these attributes:
- Performance
- Security
- Availability
- Transactional capabilities
- Scalability
This book is based on the work of a group of leading-edge IBM eServer zSeries customers and IBM experts known as the zSeries Business Leadership Council.
