Scenario 5: RCI Embedded COBOL

CONNX Data Integration Suite 14.8.0 | Enterprise Planning Guide | CONNX Scenarios | Scenario 5: RCI Embedded COBOL

This scenario shows both an RCI Embedded COBOL application on z/OS and the JDBC/RCI server on Z-Linux in another LPAR connecting to Adabas on z/OS and Adabas on AIX.

In this scenario, an RCI Embedded COBOL application uses the CONNX RCI LIB to create a remote connection to the CONNX JDBC/RCI server. The server has a direct connection to the CONNX Core. The CONNX Core is directly connected to the CDD and the License server, and remotely connected to the two CONNX servers.

The CONNX RCI for Embedded SQL is only available to Adabas SQL Gateway customers.

In this example, we are running z/OS in one VM LPAR and Z-Linux in another VM LPAR so they are considered to be physically located on one machine. We are connecting to Adabas data that resides on both z/OS and AIX.

We are also connecting to Adabas data via a COBOL application that has embedded SQL statements that have been precompiled for the RCI. This technology allows for fast database development utilizing 3GL languages.
