Ivory Service Architect allows you to create simple or complex web services from your existing CICS, IMS, 3270, CA-Ideal, CA-IDMS, external web services and data without coding. For complex services, the orchestration is managed internally by the Ivory server and is also done code free.
Ivory’s approach to development uses a Web Services wizard or graphical “wiring” diagram modeler that allows the user to drag, drop then wire together various components (programs, transactions, etc.) to compose a service.
In addition to making the services easier to build and deploy, Ivory’s no-code-generation approach streamlines maintenance by avoiding the hefty iterative cycles required by most companies to rebuild and redeploy source-code-based applications. The benefits of this approach are obvious in terms of who can participate in the development process, what they are able to accomplish, and the types of services they can employ.
