Runtime Environment

100% Java programs
Fully extensible code
Server-based implementation - NT or any UNIX variant
Efficient, highly scaleable program execution
Built-in Java terminal emulator for 3270, 5250, VT100 and VT220

EAI - B2Bi Adapters

100% custom Java programs to all major messaging systems
Server-based implementation - NT or any UNIX variant
Runs concurrently with Runtime Environment

The three components of Legacy Integrator are written entirely in Java, fully support Java Beans, and have been specifically designed for server-based implementation. The resulting technology takes full advantage of the benefits of server-based applications (centralized access and management, etc.) and enables connectivity and true integration with all major legacy application systems, including IBM, Digital and legacy Unix applications. According to the Gartner Group, 70% of all corporate data still resides on these legacy systems and if an existing internal application requires data from any other legacy application in the enterprise, Red Oak can easily enable this programmatic connectivity.

The real power of this unique solution is its innovative approach and the resource leverage it provides for integrating 3270, 5250 and VT100/220-based applications. Legacy Integrator incorporates a straightforward, automatic, "capture and generate" process whereby any Java developer can capture the steps necessary for access to data on a host system and then automatically generate Java code to automate that code. Access to all program logic and data is provided to the developer, regardless of where that essential data comes from - all without requiring any changes to the underlying application.

Another valuable feature of the SDK is its inline testing facility, which helps the developer insure that they have captured the appropriate and desired functionality. And, any number of application functions, from the same or different legacy systems, can be combined, dramatically increasing the power of the integration.

Legacy Integrator can easily integrate any new mainframe application into your enterprise through any of the major EAI or B2Bi systems by providing access to the underlying production application data of any application that can communicate via the messaging event protocol. Or it can be used in standalone server mode. When Legacy Integrator Adapters execute concurrently with the Runtime Environment, they bind Legacy Integrator and the EAI or B2Bi systems together.
