Ivory® Suite
With GT Software’s integration solution, Ivory, you can bring new capabilities to your existing technology. Designed to work across a variety of programming languages, Ivory combines drag and drop capabilities with a no-code platform to provide a truly effortless REST or SOAP API creation and integration experience.
Powering the Connected Mainframe
Today’s organizations are rapidly driving digital transformation initiatives to deliver unsurpassed customer experiences and powerful IT efficiencies. For large enterprises, the existing mainframe holds the key to unlocking their digital future – if they can integrate the platform with internal and external environments. It’s what analyst firm IDC terms the Connected Mainframe. And the results can be staggering.
GT Software’s integration solution, Ivory Service Architect, brings these connected mainframe capabilities to your existing technology. It provides the flexibility and performance that your business demands, while avoiding the complexity and cost of other solutions.
Mainframe Integration Doesn’t Have to Be Hard
Duplicating the green screen user experience on web or mobile won’t cut it, so most other tools and approaches require custom programming to add new logic necessary to achieve the desired user experience. Ivory creates complex and powerful REST and SOAP APIs with no programming.
Why Ivory?
“My team was able to maintain focus on the day-to-day work priorities without having to learn a new language. Ivory Service Architect made working with the existing mainframe applications a non-intrusive and simple process.”
Project Manager of France Galop
