Product Overview

DataInterchange/MVS-CICS's architecture comprised several key components designed to facilitate data transformation between XML/EDI formats and CICS applications on z/OS. The core components included parsing engines, transformation engines, and mapping engines. The parsing engines were responsible for interpreting the incoming EDI or XML data, identifying the data elements, and validating the format.

The transformation engines then applied the rules defined in the configuration files to convert the data into a format suitable for the target CICS application. These rules specified how data elements should be mapped, transformed, and validated. The mapping engines handled the actual mapping of data elements from the source format to the target format.

Configuration files were central to the operation of DataInterchange/MVS-CICS. These files defined the mappings between the source and target data elements, the transformation rules, and the validation rules. The product integrated with CICS applications through APIs, enabling data exchange between external formats and CICS programs.

For similar functionality, consider IBM Transformation Extender or IBM App Connect Enterprise. Migration involves reconfiguring data mappings and transformations within the new platform.
