SUMMARY:Virtual CICS User Group | September 2023
DESCRIPTION:Using CICS Artifacts to Build Web Service APIs\nCICS applications are still responsible for “running the business” in many major organizations. In this presentation with a live demo\, participants will see how to reuse\, without change\, existing CICS transactions\, programs\, and/or data to build a web service. James Alexander will demonstrate how you can quickly build web service APIs out of these applications without the risk of having to re-platform or rewrite them using HB.js \nPresented by: James Alexander—Software Engineer\, Broadcom \nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:Virtual IMS User Group | August 2023
DESCRIPTION:What does IBM Z Cyber Vault mean for an IMS environment\nWith both internal and external cyber-attacks on the rise\, customers must deal with adherence to government regulations\, fines for non-compliance\, and most importantly negative publicity and customer impact if an attack does occur. While most customers have disaster recovery plans in place\, recent events have revealed that DR not enough in the event of a cyber-attack. In this session\, we’ll give a brief introduction to the IBM Z Cyber Vault solution\, how it differs from DR\, and how it can help customers reduce recovery time by providing an environment to help detect the attack sooner and verify recovery procedures before recovering to the production environment. Then we’ll dive a bit deeper into what this means specifically for an IMS environment. \nPresented by: Tracy Dean – Product Manager\, IMS Tools and z/VM Tools\, IBM \nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:Virtual CICS User Group | July 2023
DESCRIPTION:Problem Analysis and Performance Tuning for CICS\nCICS Problems whether they are related to performance or transaction failures can in some cases be easily remediated in the short term but getting to the root cause of the problem and creating a permanent fix\, so they no longer occur\, can be quite a bit more difficult. In this session we will discuss a methodology for finding and resolving CICS problems whether they are related to performance or outages\, and show some CICS products that alone can help\, but together can provide a solution to even the most difficult ones. \nPresented by: Ezriel Gross – Principal Solutions Advisor\, Rocket Software \nRegister Here!
