Handle the most critical and demanding enterprise workloads with CORBA on the mainframe. OpenText™ Orbix Mainframe is a modern CORBA ORB for COBOL, PL/I, and C++. It runs on z/OS in batch/ISPF and USS, with CICS and IMS integration.
Orbix Mainframe provides full interoperability between mainframe and non-mainframe machines through CORBA.
Orbix Mainframe adapters enable CICS and IMS transactions to interact with CORBA clients and servers, using COBOL or PL/I.
Orbix Mainframe security features authentication, authorization, identity propagation control, integration with Orbix security service, and single sign-on.
Gain Naming , Interface Repository, Persistent State , and Object Transaction Services.
Server clustering enables load-balancing and fault tolerance.
CORBA clients and servers can be written in COBOL, PL/I, or C++.
Orbix includes IPv4 and IPv6 dual-stack support. Orbix can be configured to operate in IPv6 only mode, IPv4 only mode, or dual-stack IPv4 and IPv6 mode. In dual-stack IPv4 and IPv6 mode, Orbix handles requests over IPv4 or IPv6 concurrently.
Orbix implements key messaging features of the CORBA 3 specification. Asynchronous messaging interfaces (AMI) enable clients to make type-safe, asynchronous invocations of normal CORBA operations.
Yes. Bidirectional GIOP allows connections from the client to the server to be reused for callbacks from the server to the client. It offers a simple and efficient solution to the problem of traversing network firewalls or NATs.
