Product Overview

The architecture of Natural Development Server comprises several key components. The Natural for Windows client provides the user interface and development environment. The Natural Development Server acts as an intermediary, managing the connection to the mainframe.

Communication between the client and the server, and between the server and the mainframe, occurs via TCP/IP. The server utilizes configuration files to define connection parameters, environment settings, and other operational aspects. Security is managed through user ID and password authentication, with access control relying on mainframe-defined permissions.

The server provides logging capabilities for monitoring and troubleshooting. The server facilitates efficient development by enabling local testing and reducing mainframe resource consumption. The server's design promotes a streamlined development workflow for Natural applications.
