The architecture of SAS/SESSION for CICS integration on z/OS comprises several key components. The CICS interface acts as the entry point, handling the interaction with CICS transactions. This interface manages the submission of SAS programs, data transfer, and report retrieval.
The SAS/SESSION server is the core component, managing the communication between the CICS interface and the SAS engine. It handles the execution of SAS programs and the transfer of data. The SAS engine is responsible for executing the SAS programs and generating the reports.
Communication between the CICS interface and the SAS/SESSION server typically uses TCP/IP. The SAS/SESSION server interacts with the SAS engine using internal SAS protocols. Data storage mechanisms include standard z/OS datasets.
Configuration involves setting up the CICS interface, defining the SAS/SESSION server, and configuring the SAS environment. The CICS interface requires specific JCL and resource definitions within CICS. The SAS/SESSION server requires configuration parameters for network connectivity and SAS engine access.
Security is managed through z/OS security features, including authentication and authorization. Monitoring and logging are provided through standard z/OS facilities, including SMF records and system logs. Compared to other solutions, SAS/SESSION offers specific integration with CICS, which is a key differentiator.
