Re: Interactive Workload

Here is the information on that article you mentioned:  

The article is located at http://www.midrangecomputing.com/mmu/98/m981123.htm

Jacada Innovator from CST, Inc. is transitioning technology which enables
new or existing applications written in RPG or COBOL to be deployed with
Java or Visual Basic thin clients, eliminating character-based green
screens. Jacada Innovator introduces a first-ever, patent-pending messaging
server which facilitates high-performance communications between the
generated Java or VB client and RPG or COBOL server code - without relying
on the 5250 or 3270 data streams.
 
Jacada Innovator allows organizations with legacy applications on
mainframes and AS/400s to easily adopt new development techniques and
architectures. It provides an intuitive, incremental approach to
modernizing COBOL and RPG development skills and for building distributed,
thin client applications. 

IBM has been running FREE classes to prove if your application can be used
with this technology.  The course are done this week, but if the interest
is high enough then they will run more in Rochester next year.
