Company Background

Attachmate, owned by an investment group led by Francisco Partners, Golden Gate Capital and Thoma Cressey Equity Partners, enables IT organizations to extend mission critical services and assures they are managed, secure and compliant. Attachmate’s leading solutions include host connectivity, systems and security management, and PC lifecycle management. Our goal is to empower IT organizations to deliver trusted applications, manage service levels, and ensure compliance by leveraging knowledge, automation and secured connectivity.

Solution
Attachmate Verastream is a suite of products that speed the reuse of legacy applications in service-oriented architectures. No matter what kind of mainframe system you are using and no matter what service enablement method you want to use, Verastream provides a secure, reliable, and scalable foundation for service enabling mainframe applications.

With Verastream you can pick the service enablement method that best suits your business and IT needs:
  • Screen-based
    Using Verastream Host Integrator, developers can encapsulate data and logic via the screen interface. Whether your environment is IBM zSeries (zSeries, S/390), IBM iSeries (iSeries, AS/400), Unix, OpenVMS, or HP e3000, you can transform your legacy applications into reusable services.

  • CICS 3270 Bridge
    Verastream Bridge Integrator is a native adapter that runs in the CICS Transaction Server and leverages the power of the IBM mainframe. It allows developers to service-enable CICS functionality for reliable, high-performance integration of CICS applications.

  • Transactional-level
    With Verastream Transaction Integrator you can combine data and logic from existing programs developed for the CICS and IMS environments. Verastream masks the complexity of these programs and turns them into reusable services.

All Verastream modules for service-enablement of mainframe applications include powerful visual development tools for building reusable services and assembling composite services. The tools are easy to learn, and they publish services for both J2EE and .NET consumption. Verastream mainframe integration modules run on a variety of server platforms including OS/390, z/OS, Sun Solaris, Linux, and Windows.


Case Studies

Community College
Verastream Host Integrator v6.5 and Oracle 10g Application Server

Pain :
An American-based community college provides a mainframe based student registration system for their 35,000 students. They were having some major challenges with a tool they were using to help the development team create a web based application to allow students to register for classes over the internet. The reliability of this tool did not meet the needs of the college. Students registering for classes were constantly seeing the application fail, and classes were getting overbooked.

Solution :
Using Verastream Host Integrator, the college turned business logic and data of their IBM Mainframe based application into reusable web-services, that were next consumed by a Java based application running on Oracle 10g Application Server.

Logistics Company
Verastream Host Integrator v6.0, Oracle 10g Application Server, Oracle 10g Portal

Pain :
Allow web-based access to the AS/400 (iSeries / Series i) based 5250 order processing application, virtually eliminating any security risk. As a leader in supply chain management, this logistics company has long recognized its consumer responsibility for security.

Solution :
Using Verastream Host Integrator, the logistics company was able to securely service-enable key functionality in their order processing application. The Verastream generated services were included in an application based on Oracle 10g Portal, running on Oracle 10g Application server.
