IT organizations implementing web applications, Web services and/or SOA need to leverage back-end resources residing on their IBM mainframes. CA IDMS Server helps to fulfill this requirement by simplifying the secure access of CA IDMS mainframe resources via robust standard APIs that customers can readily use within Java and .NET development environments.
The new version also includes enhanced JDBC and ODBC drivers that provide Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) functionality to provide for security of communications over TCP/IP between distributed platforms and the mainframe.
The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) relies on CA IDMS to manage critical citizenship, immigration and non-citizen resident systems. As part of its mission to protect and secure the U.S., DHS must provide timely response to requests from other U.S. agencies that rely on this information for their operations. With CA IDMS Server r16.1, DHS is providing these users with direct, secure access to this data via the Web—thereby eliminating the need to store that data in multiple systems.
CA IDMS Server r16.1 helps customers fulfill compliance requirements by providing an end-to-end audit trail of external user identities that update data in CA IDMS databases. It supports auditing of J2EE-based systems through CA SiteMinder Web Access Manager, which provides a centralized management foundation to secure web applications and data. It also is compatible with other identity managers and standalone Java applications, enabling organizations to audit CA IDMS mainframe database updates that are initiated from web and distributed applications.
"As the technology provider for Colruyt, a large Belgian retail chain, Infoco must cost-efficiently deliver IT services that meet highly demanding requirements," said Jean-Pierre Monné, head of Database Systems at Infoco. "CA IDMS Server r16.1 helps us achieve this objective by providing business users with flexible, secure, high-performance web access to core CA IDMS databases using standard ANSI/ISO SQL."
CA IDMS Server r16.1 supports the use of IPv4 or IPv6 protocols with Type 3 and Type 4 JDBC drivers for networking flexibility and government compliance. It also offers enhanced administration tools for Windows Vista users.
New primary and foreign key metadata support enables customers to access CA IDMS databases using more comprehensive, standard SQL functionality. This can reduce or eliminate reliance on table procedures for database navigation—easing integration with customers' development, business intelligence and data warehousing tools.
