Mainframe Messaging
TIBCO's mainframe messaging software enables organizations to integrate mainframe assets with TIBCO's messaging backbone.
TIBCO's mainframe messaging software provides C, COBOL and assembler APIs for the z/OS platform. It installs easily and quickly and comes with supported samples and utilities. Message applications and daemons can run under z/OS or z/OS UNIX System Services (USS).
- Enterprise Message Service Client for z/OS provides a very efficient and scalable messaging service to your mainframe assets.
- Rendezvous for z/OS applications are able to handle in excess of thousands of messages per second. Rendezvous for z/OS provides a very fast and efficient messaging service to your mainframe assets.
TIBCO Enterprise Message Service Client for z/OS
Applications running on the mainframe can use industry-standard APIs to interact with TIBCO Enterprise Message Service™ servers running on an open systems operating platform. It supports:
- Publishing and subscribing from applications
- JMS-compliant messages in addition to TIBCO Rendezvous® and Enterprise Message Service-compliant messages
- Certified message delivery
- Reliable (topic), guaranteed and transactional (queues) message delivery
Enterprise Message Service Client for z/OS (CICS)
The Enterprise Message Service Client for z/OS (CICS) can be used to develop EMS messaging applications within the z/OS CICS environment. The client provides C and COBOL APIs for building interfaces to TIBCO EMS. A CICS application embeds the developed TIBCO EMS API function calls to facilitate message communication. The CICS application sends messages to or receives messages from a TIBCO EMS server and other TIBCO EMS clients exchange messages with the CICS application via the TIBCO EMS server.
The Enterprise Message Service Client for z/OS (CICS) supports basically the same functionality as the Enterprise Message Service Client for z/OS.
TIBCO Rendezvous for z/OS
Applications running on the mainframe can interact with TIBCO Rendezvous servers running on an open systems operating platform. It supports:
- Publishing and subscribing from applications
- Distributed queues
- Certified message delivery
- Enhanced features such as multicasts, border routing, and point-to-point applications
