UF WS Case Study - Benefits. Project benefits: ● Once again showcases ("proves") capabilities and features of CICS and the mainframe - modern, fast (deployment and response time), secure, cost effective, code reusability/extendability, etc. (Fast: Are you sure it's working? I can't believe how fast the response time is! WS connection is Gainesville, FL, to Boston, MA, for this MSB WS.) ● First major production UF SOA/Web Services implementation, utilizing "best of breed" - CICS and the mainframe! ● Helped justify mainframe and disk subsystem upgrade from IBM z800 to IBM z9 BC and Shark to DS8100? IBM Impact 2008, Steve Ware, UF 44
UF WS Case Study - Opportunities. Project "opportunities" ("gotchas?"): ● Typical "moving target" application specifications. UF Registrar's Office originally told UF students could only take one specific MSB online health test. Turns out, there are five tests allowed to satisfy the UF health requirement. ● Codepage conversion "opportunities" (easily resolved). ● First "end-user" production use of z/OS Unix file system. - Did not want to use IBM supplied /usr/lpp/cicsts/cicsts31/. - Initially used personal /u/sfw/cics/ws/ HFS space. - Now using HFS /local/cics/ws/ in production, and testing zFS. - Non-root mount/unmount and read/write vs readonly "opportunities".
