Project Overview
The Factory Services System z concept makes it possible to migrate any individual z/OS (or OS/390) environment, including IMS, CICS, DB2, and ISV to a new platform. Flexibility to respect the client's system design and a very high integration level are two of the major capabilities. Thanks to the automation of many processes and the use of global resources, the services are available at relatively low cost. Any level of desired standardization is possible.
