Oracle Tuxedo Application Runtime for Batch

Overview

• Runs rehosted IBM mainframe batch jobs with no change to JCL flow, COBOL business logic, VSAM/flat file/DB access at a fraction of the mainframe cost
• Provides standard JCL functions, COBOL support, common utilities, access to migrated VSAM, DB2, and GDG file data for faster, lower risk migration
• Access DB2, VSAM, flat file data migrated by Oracle Tuxedo Application Rehosting Workbench, remotely access DB2 on the mainframe
• Control batch using Oracle and 3rd party schedulers. Leverage command line, service API, and Web UI for batch operations
• Distribute the workload over a batch grid by running Initiators on multiple Tuxedo nodes for effective parallelization and reduced batch window

Benefits

• Reduce IT costs by over 50 percent vs. the mainframe by rehosting mainframe batch to traditional Linux/UNIX servers, engineered systems, and enterprise clouds
• Simplify and accelerate mainframe rehosting by preserving COBOL logic, file/DB access, JCL job flow and structure, and batch operations
• Improve availability and scalability of batch by distributing workload on Tuxedo’s application grid, leveraging automated fail-over and recovery
• Extend, modernize rehosted batch with COBOL, C/C++, or Java programs, scripts, COTS modules, ODI capabilities, and rich BI options to supplement or replace existing reports
• Regain control and reduce complexity of rigid IT infrastructure
