Join us in this complimentary technology seminar for a full day of in-depth discussions on how CICS® solutions can help solve some of your biggest challenges. You’ll learn about the benefits of moving to the CICS Transaction Server V3.2 release, the CICS tools portfolio, and important connectivity options as you move your CICS applications to a Service Oriented Architecture.

You’ll also have the unique opportunity to interact with technical professionals who have extensive experience in application development tools and infrastructure, so that you can make better-informed decisions and gain control of critical processes.

In this full-day technology seminar, we’ll share with you the latest updates on:

  • Open-standards connectivity that enables CICS applications to be integrated within a Service Oriented Architecture

  • Turning ISPF into a centralized, object-oriented development center to dramatically improve performance

  • Using the Eclipse technology of WebSphere® Developer for System z™ as a single integrated development environment for CICS applications

  • Productivity tools for modernizing and deploying core System z applications

If you’re a CICS application or systems programmer, or an application manager, it will be well worth your time to learn how to gain the full value of your CICS solutions.
