Hi list.

We have a daily betch job that is processing as input records which has been 
collected all day.
volume of records is about 5 millions for 24 hours.

In order to make systems more "online" we are looking for a way to
run the process for each record all day long instead of a daily run,
and doing so with minimum as possible application changes.

One idea that came up is to convert the process to a "self developed" STC
which will be triggered by a record on an MQ queue and will run as STC all the
batch process programs

To me it seems like a bad idea because having a "self developed" STC in 
production
create a maintenance gap (and where there is one STC a second one
will soon to follow...)...

Are there other advantages / dis-advantages regarding a "self developed" STC ?

Are there any "self developed" STC's at your shop?

Any other ideas on how to approach this issue?

Thanks in advanced.

Well, you could set up your free HTTP server and
handle it using HTML and CGIs. You could use
CICS/TS if you have it and use the web interface.


Or, use a z/OS UNIX daemon with multithreading.


Not sure about the 5M trans a day rate, for any
of these, though. Need to do some benchmarking.
