Let’s take these in order: 1. CICS: Yes, with CICS Transaction Server 6.1 for z/OS. Expected General Availability of CICS TS 6.1 is this Friday, June 17, 2022. 2. IMS: I assume you’re asking about JMP and JBP regions. In the pipeline I believe, but I have no inside information. However, you should already be able to do certain important things with IMS from Semeru VMs such as connect to IMS DB via JDBC. 3. z/OS Connect: The latest release (3.0.57) uses embedded Liberty 22.0.0.4. This release of Liberty is supported on the IBM Semeru Runtime. However, I don’t think IBM has quite connected the dots yet back to z/OS Connect since it’s not necessarily only a lift and shift at the application level due to possible deprecations (see below). 4. z/OSMF: In the pipeline I believe, but I have no inside information. #3 and #4 are somewhat less exciting since they’re used as embedded runtimes, and IBM supports the runtimes on IBM’s lifecycle. OpenJDK 11/Semeru 11 have deprecations compared to Java 8, and those have to be checked. In particular the security implementation changes. #1 and #2 are arguably the more interesting/urgent ones since those are directly programmed environments. — — — — — Timothy Sipples Senior Architect Digital Assets, Industry Solutions, and Cybersecurity IBM zSystems/LinuxONE, Asia-Pacific [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
