I've been tasked with running our shipping system, currently a barcode
scanner with a 5250 application, as a web page that could be easily run on
an android scanning device. I'm having trouble weeding through the
different solutions and the real advantages and disadvantages to the
different ways to get there. What I recall looking very attractive, some
years ago, was IBM HATS (host access tranformation service). I remember it
having some sort of per user licensing. I've also seen IBM products fade
away from support (ie. Infoprint Server) and I haven't heard a lot of
marketing behind HATS. Is this still an attractive product to accomplish a
screen scrape with some possible minor modifications to the display? Are
there better solutions now for accomplishing this without requiring a lot
of web design knowledge?
