The weekly IBM announcement letters are out. One that
caught my eye:
IBM System Services Runtime Environment for z/OS V1.1
From the description it looks like it might be a
non-WebSphere version of Apache / Tomcat for z/OS.
(Wouldn't that be a kick?) It's a no charge item,
but requires z/OS 1.9.
But I find the announcement kind of vague and "mushy".
Can anybody describe this product more clearly?
Think of it as a no-charge, simplified, web services provider that we're
making available for z/OS customers to allow them to run specific IBM
software packages of our choice (and nothing else) that need a web services
environment.
As the announcement says, it's customized to allow simple installation and
configuration for select system-level, no-charge applications, and helps
reduce the cost and skills needed to install and run those applications.
So I couldn't write my own code / HTML and use this product
to run a web site for a corporate intranet or the public internet?
It only works with IBM-supplied or IBM-blessed applications?
