What is IBM CICS?

IBM® CICS® Transaction Server for z/OS® has evolved into a flexible mixed-language application server, enabling developers to create and refine applications using languages and tools that match their skills and business needs. It accommodates a range of programming languages and frameworks, such as Java®-based OSGi, Springboot®, Jakarta® EE, Eclipse® MicroProfile, and a Node.js® environment for JavaScript and TypeScript, in addition to traditional languages like COBOL, C/C++, and PL/I. This diverse support allows CICS to efficiently handle applications, serving high-volume transaction environments with a focus on security, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. Developers have the option to design new applications or enhance existing mission-critical services by incorporating new interfaces. With such a broad spectrum of programming languages available, developers can unleash their creativity and innovate freely. Furthermore, the development experience in CICS Transaction Server is similar to that of other platforms, boosted by plug-ins for widely-used tools like Maven®, Gradle®, Zowe®, and UrbanCode Deploy®, which facilitate easy adaptation for developers in this ever-changing environment. By harnessing these modern features, organizations are better equipped to maintain competitiveness and adapt to the shifting demands of the market, ultimately leading to greater business success. As a result, the future of application development within CICS looks promising and full of potential.
