COMTI 綜覽
 COMTI “wraps” CICS and IMS
transactions and exposes them as
COM objects. With COMTI,
HTTP
developers are quickly and easily
able to:
IIS / ASP
TCP/IP
SNA
Build n-tier applications that
COMTI

MVS/CICS
integrate MTS with IBM CICS and
TCP/IP
SNA
IMS transactions

Build Windows applications which
access host transactions without
learning host programming

integrate MTS via 2PC to maintain
distributed transactional integrity

COMTI Automation Creation
1. Identify COBOL program
2. Import COBOL code into Component Builder
3. Click to create Type Library (.tlb file) with
Component Builder
4. Drag and Drop the .tlb file into the MTS
Package.
When the component is called, it invokes a CICS or an IMS
transaction and passes the input parameters for processing..

Snapshot Replication - Takes a snapshot of current data in a
publication at a Publisher and replaces the entire replica at a
Subscriber on a periodic basis.
Incremental Replication - Distributes transactions to Subscribers
as incremental changes are made.
Merge Replication - Allows sites to make autonomous changes to
replicated data, and at a later time, merge changes made at all
sites. Merge replication does not guarantee transactional
consistency.
