With Verastream Transaction Integrator you can combine data and logic from existing programs developed for the CICS and IMS environments. Verastream masks the complexity of these programs and turns them into reusable services for new application development.

Verastream Transaction Integrator includes the following features:

Standard, open interfaces to all the programs developed in the CICS and IMS environments.
Direct access to the transactions in CICS and IMS applications.
An import utility that lets you leverage existing metadata definitions and create XML-based metadata.
Native security support, including RACF, ACF2, and TopSecret.
Ability to save transactions in the format that is native to your client application, Microsoft BizTalk Server, or any J2EE-compliant application server.
A key Verastream feature, client/server implementation, includes the following benefits:

GUI-based development environment
A graphical development environment imports COBOL copybooks to capture transactions with drag-and-drop ease. With Verastream’s GUI-based tools, you can auto-generate EJB, JavaBeans, JCA RA, web services, or XML.

Web-based centralized management
The Management and Control Services component acts as a central repository for captured transactions. MCS provides additional security while enabling administrators to monitor and log activity.
