LEGACY SKILLS : MAINFRAMES & AS400

Operating Systems

Middleware

Mainframes are computers used mainly by large organizations for critical applications, typically bulk data processingsuch as census, industry and consumer statistics, ERP, and financial transaction processing

Nearly all mainframes have the ability to run (or host) multiple operating systems, and thereby operate not as a singlecomputer but as a number of virtual machines. In this role, a single mainframe can replace dozens or even hundreds smaller servers.

A legacy code is any application based on older technologies and hardware, such as mainframes, that continues toprovide core services to an organization

Legacy Transformation, or legacy modernization, refers to the rewriting or porting of a legacy system to a moderncomputer programming language, software libraries, protocols, or hardware platform. Sometimes referred to as softwamigration, legacy transformation aims to retain and extend the value of the legacy investment through migration to neplatforms.

COBOLis one of the oldest programming languages still in active use. Its name is an acronym forCOmmon BusinessOriented Language, defining its primary domain in business, finance, and administrative systems for companies andgovernments.

PL/I ("Programming Language One"),is an imperative computer programming language designed for scientific,engineering, and business applications. It is one of the most feature-rich programming languages. It has been used bvarious academic, commercial and industrial users since it was introduced in the early 1960s, and is still actively usedtoday.

IBM mainframes, though perceived as synonymous with mainframe computers in general due to their marketshare, anow technically and specifically IBM's line of business computers that can all trace their design evolution to the IBMSystem/360.

The primary operating systems in use on current IBM mainframes include z/OS (which followed MVS and OS/390),

z/VM (previously VM/CMS), z/VSE, z/TPF, and Linux on System z. A few systems run MUSIC/SP and UTS (MainframUNIX). There are software-based emulators for the System/370, System/390, zSeries, and System z9 hardware,including FLEX-ES and the freely available Hercules emulator which runs under Linux and Microsoft Windows. InOctober, 2008, Sine Nomine Associates introduced OpenSolaris on System z.

Current IBM mainframes run all the major enterprise transaction processing environments and databases, includingCICS, IMS, WebSphere Application Server, DB2, and Oracle. In many cases these software subsystems can run onmore than one mainframe operating system.

IBM DB2, in computing, a relational database management system, more recently coined a "data server" by IBM

Job Control Language, a scripting language used on IBM mainframe operating systems

CICS (Customer Information Control System) is a transaction server that runs primarily on IBM mainframe systems

CICS is a transaction manager designed for rapid, high-volume online processing. This processing is mostly interactiv(screen-oriented), but background transactions are possible.

REXX (REstructured eXtended eXecutor) is an interpreted programming language which was developed at IBM. It is structured high-level programming language which was designed to be both easy to learn and easy to read. Bothcommercial and open source interpreters for REXX are available on a wide range of computing platforms, and compilare available for IBM mainframes.

RPG (aka RPG IV aka RPGLE) is the mainstay programming language of the IBM System i platform.

Multiple Virtual Storage, more commonly called MVS, was the most commonly used operating system on theSystem/370 and System/390 IBM mainframe computers.

First released in 1974, MVS had been renamed multiple times, first to MVS/XA (eXtended Architecture), next toMVS/ESA (Enterprise Systems Architecture), then to OS/390 (when UNIX System Services (USS) were added), andfinally to z/OS (when 64-bit support was added with the zSeries models). Its core remains fundamentally the same

operating system. By design, programs written for MVS can still run on z/OS without modification.

Virtual storage access method (VSAM) is an IBM disk file storage access method, first used in the OS/VS2 operatisystem, later used throughout the Multiple Virtual Storage (MVS) architecture and now in z/OS.

The AS/400 was introduced in 1988 by IBM as a minicomputer for general business and departmental use. It underweseveral rebrandings until its last rebrand in 2006 to the name of IBM System i. It remained in production until April 200when it was replaced by the IBM Power Systems line. It uses an object-based library-based operating system calledIBM i

The AS/400 Control Language (CL) is a scripting language for the IBM AS/400 midrange platform bearing a

resemblance to the IBM Job Control Language and consisting of an ever expanding set of command objects (*CMD)used to invoke traditional AS/400 programs and/or get help on what those programs do.

Java platform is the name for a bundle of related programs, or platform, from Sun which allow fordeveloping and running programs written in the Java programming language.

The heart of the Java Platform is the concept of a "virtual machine" that executes Java bytecodeprograms. This bytecode is the same no matter what hardware or operating system the program isrunning under.

A Java Virtual Machine (JVM) is a set of computer software programs and data structures which virtual machine model for the execution of other computer programs and scripts.

The JVM, which is the instance of the JRE (Java Runtime Environment), comes into action whenprogram is executed. When execution is complete, this instance is garbage-collected. JIT is the paJVM that is used to speed up the execution time

System integration testing verifies that a system is integrated to any external or third party systems defined in the srequirements.

Software testing methods are traditionally divided into black box testing and white box testing. These two approachesdescribe the point of view that a test engineer takes when designing test cases

Beta testingcomes after alpha testing. Versions of the software, known as beta versions, are released to a limited authe programming team. The software is released to groups of people so that further testing can ensure the product ha

Acceptance testing can be conducted by the end-user, customer, or client to validate whether or not to accept the pAcceptance testing may be performed as part of the hand-off process between any two phases of developmen

After modifying software, either for a change in functionality or to fix defects, a regression test re-runs previously pasmodified software to ensure that the modifications haven't unintentionally caused a regression of previous function

Manual testing is the oldest and most rigorous type of software testing. Manual testing requires a tester to perform moperations on the test software without the help of Test automation. Manual testing is a laborious activity that requires
