expose mainframe, midrange and client/server apps as web services.

One of the challenges of enterprise web and mobile initiatives is how to combine complex enterprise applications with new development. With LegaSuite, you can quickly and easily provide web services from critical mainframe, IBM i, UNIX, and client/server systems, ensuring instant access to key info.

zero changes to business-critical apps.

Your existing mission-critical applications are what run your business. Now you can integrate these applications with your Web site, partner portals, business process management, customer relationship management, and other applications without changing a line of your mission-critical code.

reuse existing applications with BPM and ESB platforms.

With LegaSuite you can accelerate integration between business critical applications and your BPM and ESB platforms. Seamlessly blend business processes and data from multiple platforms and provide it all in a SOA-accessible way. The business logic still executes unchanged on the host platform.

Make your architects happy.

Web services and supporting infrastructure can be designed in many different ways. LegaSuite works with both top-down, requirements-driven, and bottom-up, technology-driven SOA development. And whether your target is a single UDDI server or a federated enterprise service bus, your Web services will fit right in.

Be a star performer.

Those green-screens and CICS transactions have always been blazing fast. Harness the speed of those same applications on their native platforms. Features like session pooling and automated scaling based on real-time workloads and response times make sure you meet your service level agreements, and detailed logging makes sure you can prove it.

Deployment choices galore.

Data center. Cloud. Internal server farm. Virtual or physical hardware. Or right onboard the mainframe, IBM i, or Windows. Deploy your solution from almost any platform—including natively in CICS. You can even create hybrid deployments that direct expensive XML processing to commodity platforms while maintaining core processing in the existing applications.
