What infrastructure is required?

XML Publisher for IDMS requires a z/OS environment with CA IDMS installed. It leverages XML Query for IDMS to extract and transform data.

For mainframe products: Does this run in an LPAR?

Yes, it runs within a z/OS LPAR, dependent on the CA IDMS subsystem.

Does this extend/enhance another product?

XML Publisher for IDMS extends CA IDMS by providing XML publishing capabilities. It requires XML Query for IDMS to function.

What configuration files or interfaces are used?

The product likely uses configuration files to define the XML mappings and event triggers. Consult the product documentation for specifics.

What is the business value of using XML Publisher for IDMS?

XML Publisher for IDMS enables integration with other systems, allowing for real-time data synchronization and SOA enablement, improving business agility.

How does this product enable SOA?

By enabling SOA, organizations can create reusable services from their CA IDMS data, reducing development time and improving application integration.

What would happen if an organization did not use this product?

Without XML Publisher for IDMS, organizations would need to develop custom integration solutions, which can be costly and time-consuming.

What access control model is used?

Access control is likely managed through CA IDMS security features, controlling access to the underlying data.

What audit/logging capabilities exist?

Audit logging capabilities likely exist within the CA IDMS environment, tracking access and modifications to data.

What level of technical expertise is required to implement it?

Product Overview

XML Publisher for IDMS is designed to publish CA IDMS events as XML, enabling integration with other systems and supporting Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). It leverages XML Query for IDMS to extract and transform data from the CA IDMS database. The architecture consists of components that interact to facilitate this process.

The main components likely include an event listener, an XML transformation engine, and a publishing module. The event listener monitors CA IDMS for specific events. When an event occurs, the XML transformation engine uses XML Query for IDMS to extract the relevant data and transform it into XML format.

The publishing module then sends the XML message to the target system. XML Publisher for IDMS typically runs within a z/OS LPAR and is dependent on the CA IDMS subsystem. It requires XML Query for IDMS to function.

The product likely uses configuration files to define the XML mappings and event triggers. It likely supports standard authentication methods available in z/OS and CA IDMS environments, such as RACF or ACF2. Alternatives include custom-built integration solutions or other data replication tools.
