WebSphere Optimized Local Adapters
IBM WebSphere Optimized Local Adapters (OLA or WOLA) is a functional component of IBM's WebSphere Application Server for z/OS that provides an efficient cross-memory mechanism for calls both inbound to WAS z/OS and outbound from z/OS. Because it avoids the overhead of other communication mechanisms, it is capable of high volume exchange of messages. WOLA is an extension to the existing cross-memory exchange mechanism of WAS z/OS, with WOLA providing an external interface so z/OS address spaces outside the WAS z/OS server may participate in cross-memory exchanges. WOLA supports connectivity between a WAS z/OS server and one or more of the following: CICS, IMS, Batch, UNIX Systems Services and ALCS. WOLA was first made available in WAS z/OS Version 7, Fixpack 4 (7.0.0.4). Functional enhancements have appeared in subsequent fixpacks as documented in this article. History The WebSphere Optimized Local Adapters for WAS z/OS (WOLA or OLA for short) has its origins in a desire to ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
WebSphere Application Server For Z/OS
IBM WebSphere Application Server for z/OS is one of the platform implementations of IBM's WebSphere Application Server family. The latest version is Version 9.0. The open standard interfaces supported by WAS are common across all platforms provided the version and release levels are aligned. However, the functional implementation ''below'' the open standard specification line differs between platforms. That allows the specific attributes of the platform to be exploited without jeopardizing the common programming interface at the specification level and above. WAS z/OS Platform Exploitation The WebSphere Application Server for z/OS V7 product has code to directly exploit the following attributes of the platform: * WLM—is used for transaction classification, workload routing, server expansion and relative resource allocation * SAF—products implemented behind the SAF interface (such as IBM's RACF) provide security definition and security enforcement for the product * Cross- ...
