I need to port our latest piece of software to the mainframe. The software runs as a server using TCP/IP on Linux/Unix/Windows already. Therefore, porting to USS should be fairly painless. What pros and cons would there be porting this server to native z/OS? + Better performance? + Would customers prefer a native version? If so, by how much? + Do some clients resist/abhor using Unix on the mainframe? + SMP/E installation of OMVS software supported (and straightforward) or not? + Other I assume that Hipersockets are available to both USS & z/OS to improve throughput. If so, is this a scarce/costly resource for customers?
