Extend IBM iSeries Systems to the Web and Beyond
Improve existing business processes by up to 300%
IBM
iSeries Systems are prevalent in medium to large organizations
worldwide, running mission critical business applications.
Companies with these systems that wish to expand the usage
to the
Web or
integrate with their partners and suppliers often face
technical challenges. OnWeb for iSeries allows companies to quickly
turn inefficient green screen applications into graphical
Web-based
applications. Furthermore, OnWeb transforms business processes
locked in to iSeries Systems into components that are capable
of
integrating with almost any other application. All this
is accomplished without changing the business logic of the application – lowering
the risk and the cost of deploying new business solutions.
OnWeb for iSeries offers a comprehensive yet easy-to-use development
and deployment platform that can be used by non iSeries experts
to transform these legacy systems into modern Web applications.
In addition, OnWeb for iSeries has built-in flexibility that allows
companies to fine-tune various deployment options based on the
types of users and their roles within the company.

Introducing iPrint!!! Printing from iSeries to PDF
OnWeb for iSeries features a new printing solution called iPrint. This solution allows world-wide-web
(HTML) users to receive iSeries (AS/400) print jobs in the form of PDF or Excel formats regardless of their geographic whereabouts.
This feature is critical to Insurance and Healthcare providers since most of their job functions revolve around printing.
This solution eliminates the need for local print terminals and uses local printers.

ZERO OLTP Support
Customers are looking for ways to squeeze more 5250 application
access from their limited OLTP CPW. At the same time, they are looking for new ways to access and use their traditional 5250 applications. OnWeb for iSeries contains a TN5250 server which communicates directly to the WebFacing
Server on the iSeries system. This gives OnWeb for iSeries the ability to connect over TN5250 to its own module rather than the IBM TN5250 Server, and indirectly to the WebFacing Server. 5250 sessions obtained via the WebFacing
Server do not consume 5250 OLTP CPW.

Desktop emulation replacement.
While the benefits of a rich graphical environment are evident,
for some users, the look and feel of green screen needs to remain. OnWeb is the only platform of
it’s kind to offer features like keyboard buffering, AJAX based updates, and legacy printing that
replicate the emulation user experience without the need for a desktop based emulator.

Integration with new packaged applications.
A large number of organizations have stopped using legacy applications on
a day to day basis but still need to have access to historical data or transactional data on a
legacy system. OnWeb encapsulates any legacy transaction for use in Web services or other integration
components that can be accessed by other applications.
