Patrick,
There is a redbook(?) that informs the reader of the basics. Is that
what you are looking for ?

Hi List - I was wondering if anyone out there can point me to a z/OS
Highlights reference of some sort.
What I am looking for is something that I can use for a sample in
giving a
presentation on all of z/OS' capabilities these days.
We have recently developed a Technology Committee here in which I
am the
mainframe representative. We have quarterly meetings with
presenations
from the different groups. It became quite apparent to me when we
recently
developed a Technology Blueprint and there wasn't any reference to the
mainframe.
I would like to present to my group all of the bells and whistles
that now
come with z/OS. It is clear that they believe that the mainframe
is just a
left behind technology being that they do not interface with it
that often.
For examples, I would like to find information on supported
protocols/languages/standards of z/OS components like:
Communications:
VIPA
SMTP
DNS
Security:
SSL
LDAP
UNIX System Services - POSIX support
Websphere - Supported languages (I see that Perl is now a supported
language)
They will probably blow a gasket when they find out that the
mainframe can
not only have a webpage but is also useful in eCommerce and the like.
Thanks to all who can respond.
Regards,
Patrick Lyon
