Mainframe Connect supplies the connectivity tools that allow you to fully integrate your mainframe and LAN-based data sources.
Mainframe Connect allows you to:
Enable the IBM zSeries mainframe components running under CICS, IMS, or MVS to access data stored on an IBM mainframe as if it were Sybase data.
Create custom mainframe applications that provide access to data stored on LAN-based servers
Create Open Server™ gateways to other mainframe database management systems (DBMSs), file systems, and applications
Create custom applications that access mainframe data sources
The DirectConnect for z/OS Option is the only
Mainframe Connect option that resides on the LAN (Microsoft Windows
or UNIX). All other options reside on the mainframe.
