SyBridge

The architecture of SyBridge centers around three main components: the SyBridge VTAM interface, the NetView automation engine, and the communication layer. The VTAM interface acts as a bridge, enabling direct communication between VTAM applications and NetView. This interface uses VTAM protocols for data exchange.

The NetView automation engine processes the data received from the VTAM applications, allowing for automated responses and actions. The communication layer handles the underlying network protocols and ensures reliable data transfer. Configuration involves defining VTAM application connections within NetView using the NetView CLI.

For example, to define a connection, you might use commands like `AUTOTBL ADD` or `CNMSTYLE`. , RACF) for authentication and access control. All actions are logged, providing a comprehensive audit trail.

The product's design prioritizes seamless integration with NetView and existing z/OS environments, ensuring minimal disruption and maximum compatibility. The direct VTAM interface is a key differentiator, providing a streamlined approach to data exchange and automation.
