apXplore-IDMS

The architecture of apXplore-IDMS comprises several key components designed to facilitate seamless integration between CA-IDMS applications and MQ-based systems. The core components include the IDMS Adapter, the Message Transformation Engine, and the Queue Manager Interface. The IDMS Adapter acts as the primary interface between the apXplore-IDMS system and the CA-IDMS database.

It handles the retrieval and storage of data within the IDMS environment, translating data formats as needed. The Message Transformation Engine is responsible for converting data between different formats, such as those used by CA-IDMS and MQ. This component supports various transformation rules defined in configuration files.

The Queue Manager Interface manages the queuing and delivery of messages using MQ. It handles message routing, ensuring messages are delivered to the correct destinations. These components communicate using MQ messaging, with the IDMS Adapter interacting with the IDMS database through native interfaces.

The system uses MQ for message transport. Configuration files are used to define message mappings and transformations. The CLI is used for administration, and user management is handled through the z/OS security system.

Monitoring and logging capabilities are available for tracking message flow and system performance. The system uses MQ for message transport. The main administrative interface is a CLI, and user management is handled through the z/OS security system.
