Entree Modernization Guide

Entree web-enables CICS applications, allowing users to interact with existing 3270 screens through a web browser without modifying the underlying application code. It can run alongside CICS or as a standalone transaction manager, supporting most EXEC CICS calls.

Entree can be configured to use CICS Web Services, enabling integration with other systems and applications. It also supports standard web protocols for communication.

Entree can operate either in conjunction with CICS or as an independent transaction manager. This flexibility allows it to adapt to different environments and requirements.

Entree exposes APIs that allow integration with other systems. While specific API details depend on the configuration, it can leverage CICS Web Services for SOAP or REST-based interactions. It also supports integration through standard web protocols.

Entree's architecture includes components for screen mapping, transaction management, and web serving. These components communicate using internal protocols and standard web protocols.

Entree accepts most EXEC CICS calls, allowing existing CICS applications to be web-enabled with minimal changes. It supports standard web protocols for communication.

By web-enabling CICS applications, Entree allows organizations to extend the life of their legacy systems and provide modern access to existing functionality. This can reduce development costs and improve user experience.

Entree allows users to access existing 3270 screens through a web browser without requiring modifications to the underlying application. This reduces the time and effort required to modernize legacy applications.

Entree supports various authentication methods, including integration with existing security systems. The specific methods depend on the configuration and the environment in which Entree is deployed.

Entree provides audit logging capabilities to track user activity and system events. These logs can be used for security monitoring and compliance purposes.

Entree provides administrative interfaces for managing users, configuring system parameters, and monitoring system performance. The specific interfaces depend on the deployment environment.

Entree provides monitoring and logging capabilities to track system performance and identify potential issues. These capabilities can be used to ensure the smooth operation of the system.
