General information

Our z/OS products are mainly developed in PL/I as well as C and REXX and are therefore independent of the z/OS release level. They use documented standard interfaces such as Language Enviroment, DB2, RACF, IZWS PIF, TCP/IP, VSAM, BSAM and QSAM, whose compatibility is guaranteed by IBM . This means that our programs are compatible with all supported z/OS versions and guarantee smooth operation without any known limitations.
