Overview
Companies today seek to create an IT
environment that offers reduced
maintenance costs, support for new
business requirements, mitigated risk,
and can consolidate IT systems or enable
them to be more agile in supporting the
business going forward. The INFINITE
Software zSeries solution suite offers
the most cost-effective, efficient and
complete solution for migrating and
modernizing Mainframe applications for
the attainment of those strategic goals.
The Infinite zSeries environment is a
fully-functional, native, runtime and
development environment for execution of
S/390 and zSERIES applications. Infinite
zSeries manages application resources
such as programs, files, queues,
transactions, screens, and printers
providing a robust execution environment
for business applications.
Infinite zSeries also provides a
complete environment for execution and
management of batch workloads on open
system servers. Concepts such as job
management and priorities are supported.
The product features a complete suite of
compilers, utilities, database support
and operating system services that
allows application programs developed
for zSERIES to be migrated at the source
code level, recompiled, and executed
under Open Systems. Infinite zSeries
supports migration of COBOL code to the
Windows, UNIX or Linux platforms.
Infinite zSeries supports the Infinite
DB, SQL and Oracle databases.
INFINITEzSeries - Legacy Migration
Migrate Mainframe Applications
quickly and cost effectively to Windows,
UNIX or Linux, Modernize and Integrate
using INFINITE zSeries software and
services from INFINITE Software.
Products from INFINITE Software are the
leading legacy migration and
modernization tools for the IBM Midrange
and Mainframe markets. INFINITE Software
enjoys over 100,000 installations in 56
countries worldwide. INFINITE products
are used to achieve platform neutrality
for IBM Legacy applications, a truly
web-based interface and SOA integration.
Mainframe applications run core business
enterprises worldwide and represent
tremendous intellectual capital built
over time. While these assets and the
platform they run on have proven
responsive to traditional international
business needs, the web, newer database
products and the need for usable Service
Oriented Architecture technology have
created a new set of expectations for
access and use of these applications.
Replacement of green screens,
integration with desktop and
enterprise-wide tools, the use of web
services, streamlined workflow and
self-service functionality are required
features of marketable applications
today.
By deploying INFINITEzSeries, COBOL,
CICS, JCL and MVS/VSE, OS/390 and Z/OS
based applications can be offered on
Windows, UNIX or Linux that combine the
maturity of robust, tried and tested
applications with the economy and power
of 21st century technologies.
What is it?
INFINITEzSeries is a suite of
compilers, utilities and operating
system services that allow applications
programs (developed under COBOL for the
Mainframe environment) to be migrated at
the source code level, recompiled and
executed on the target platform.
INFINITEzSeries is integrated with
INFINITEweb and INFINITE BI. The
combined suite of programs, utilities
and operating environment provide a very
complete Legacy Migration and
Modernization solution.
A better alternative than rewriting.
INFINITEzSeries is the solution of
choice for IBM Mainframe system
developers who want to protect their
investment in IBM Mainframe applications
and resources. The benefits are
immediate-financially, operationally and
strategically. Migrating with
INFINITEzSeries is an attractive
alternative to the cost of major time
delays associated with rewriting legacy
applications.
INFINITEzSeries is the easiest to use,
fastest to deploy and most cost
effective method of migrating and
modernizing Mainframe applications to
UNIX, Linux or Windows. INFINITEzSeries
provides the ability to reduce the
number of platforms to be supported
while protecting the investment in the
legacy code as well as the current
support and development staff.
INFINITEzSeries generates truly native
multi-platform solutions and will enable
software developers to migrate their
COBOL applications in far less time than
redeveloping. In addition, it is
possible to continue development on the
Mainframe and/or migrated platform.
Existing support infrastructure and
documentation can be used for both
platforms.
The migration risk is far less because
the existing resource remains unaltered,
current skills can maintain and support
the application, the application code
runs in a replicated environment-this
change will cause a minimum level of
disruption in the day-to-day operation
of the business.
