Hello Fellow Listers! I am in the initial stages of a thesis/project for my Master's degree and the topic is: Evaluation of Exposing the Mainframe to the World via SOA. With that said I would like to gather information from this knowledge base as to the following: 1) What, if any, tools are you using to SOA enable your mainframe? 2) What, if any, tools are you using for Change Management of your services? 3) What, if any, tools are you using for security? 4) What, if any, tools are you using for the documentation of the services? 5) How are you connecting to the mainframe? 6) Are you using the mainframe as a service consumer, requestor or both? 7) What applications are you using for services? CICS/IMS/DB2/etc. 8) Any other information that you can share? I have setup an email address on gmail so this list does not get clogged up with responses, [email protected] for your replies and information. If you can please reply with any information that you feel may help with this project. Thank you in advance for your assistance!! Glenn Glenn A. Schneck AVP, Transaction Services SunTrust Banks, Inc.
