MQConnect
MQConnect is a fully featured MQSeries client that runs natively in
the Unisys A/NX/LX-Series MCP environment.
Solve your enterprise integration problems.
MQConnect©and COMSBridge/MQ©
- products which are specifically designed to solve your enterprise
integration problems. IBM's MQSeries is the message oriented middleware
of choice and is extensively used by large corporations like People's
Bank, Capitol One, Discount Bank and 3rd Federal to integrate
applications running on dissimilar platforms. See MQConnect
on IBM.
MQseries is supported on almost all major computing
platforms, and now it is available for Unisys A-Series/NX. Developed
under license from IBM, Hursley by Peter Mullins Consultancy Ltd., the
following products are available now:
MQConnect©
MQConnect
provides the MSeries MQI for all major platforms, including Unisys
A-Series and Clearpath NX systems. As an MQSeries client, it can
interact with any Queue Manager that supports client channels. For
Clearpath systems the in-built NT Server can be used to host the
MQSeries server, or for more scaleable solutions an MVS, AS400 or Unix
server may be chosen. The overhead of message queue processing is
incurred by the server, ensuring that a minimum of expensive mainframe
resources are chosen.
COMSBridge/MQ©
COMSBridge/MQ
provides an interface between legacy applications running under COMS
(the Unisys TP monitor), and MQSeries. On-line applications using the
standard communications verbs (SEND, RECEIVE, ENABLE, DISABLE) may send
and receive messages to and from MQSeries Queue Managers. The standard
COMS configuration utility is used to establish the required routing to
the on-line applications using windows, agendas and transaction codes.
COMSBridge/MSMQ©
COMSBridge/MSMQ
provides an interface between legacy applications running under COMS
(the Unisys TP monitor), and Microsoft Message Queues. In the same way
as COMSBridge/MQ, on-line applications can use standard communications
verbs to send and receive
messages allowing seamless integration into a Microsoft networking environment.
Features:
1. MQConnect
was developed under licence from IBM Hursley Labs using specifications
and test suites provided by IBM.
2. MQConnect
uses the same proprietary IBM MQSeries channel protocol as any other
MQSeries client (NT, Unix, s/390, etc).
3. MQConnect
requires no gateways or additional components on the MQSeries server
platform.
4. MQConnect
is not dependent on Windows NT. It works directly with the MQSeries
server on your platform of choice - Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, AS400, s/390,
NT and others.
5. MQConnect
fully supports MQSeries Integrator versions 1 & 2. Unisys
applications may directly access the message service folders contained
in the RFH headers in order to participate in MQSI message flow
processing.
6. MQConnect
provides a DATACONVERT exit which allows for the conversion (CCSID and
encoding) of custom message formats.
7. MQConnect
requires no add-ons or snap-ins for management or monitoring. Any
MQSeries management product can be used, although in most cases,
MQSeries Explorer is sufficient.
8. MQConnect
works with LINC systems either by using the NOF facility or with COMSBridge.
9. COMSBridge/MQ
supports the vast majority of legacy applications.
10. COMSBridge/MQ
comes with full source code to allow customisation to accommodate
legacy COMS applications with non-standard behaviour.
11. MQConnect
and COMSBridge/MQ
are mature products and have been used in production environments since
September 1998.
12. MQConnect
and COMSBridge/MQ
have an extensive and growing user base.
