1. A New Approach to Old Data: Turning Legacy Data into a Virtual Database http://search390.com/r/0,,34580,00.htm?track=NL-251&ad=496540 2. Invest or Migrate? Using Web Services Technology to Preserve Mainframe System Value http://search390.com/r/0,,34581,00.htm?track=NL-251&ad=496540 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A New Approach to Old Data: Turning Legacy Data into a Virtual Database Sponsored by: Arbutus Software ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Current Virtual Data Warehouse or EII solutions focus on integrating data from database managers, but come up short when addressing non-relational, VSAM and IMS data. This paper introduces the simplicity and flexibility of a new technology that uniquely addresses the most common problems with mainframe legacy data sources through application scenarios, case studies, and comparative analyses. See for yourself how challenges like departmental access, data mart/data modeling, systems conversion/migration, and web services can be met head-on with this cost-effective and innovative solution. Providing a complete virtual solution for your legacy data access and integration needs, this technology includes a powerful semantic layer, star schema modeling and full dynamic data transformation.

Using Web Services Technology to Preserve Mainframe System Value Sponsored by: IONA Technologies ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The rumors of the mainframe's death are greatly exaggerated. No credible technology pundit would stand up and claim the demise of the mainframe or the COBOL and PL/I systems that run on it. This paper shows how to evaluate the challenges of migrating host applications and decide whether it is economically and technically advisable to do so. It shows how an incremental approach to migration helps ensure success from both a technical and a financial perspective. It then outlines some of the technical challenges posed by incremental migration and how the principles of Service-Oriented Architectures and Web services technology address some of those issues. It then proposes some ground rules and requirements for infrastructure to support piece-by-piece migration of host systems.
