Oracle Tuxedo 11g: Rehost Mainframe Applications using ART

This course provides an overview of the problems businesses face today with mainframe applications, and how Tuxedo ART solves these problems. It quickly gets students up and running with their first Tuxedo ART environment and re-hosted application, providing a breakdown of the migration process for moving an application from the mainframe to Tuxedo ART. The course covers all of the features provided by Oracle Tuxedo ART and the ART Workbench and provides developers, architects, and administrators with the knowledge they need to configure, develop, deploy, and manage applications re-hosted on Tuxedo ART. Additionally, the course covers the various mainframe and SOA integration possibilities available for rehosted applications.

Learn To:

• Establish a process for performing the migration from the mainframe to Tuxedo ART.
• Configure and use Tuxedo core capabilities and administrative features.
• Use the Tuxedo ART Workbench to migrate databases, data files, application code, and job execution code to the Tuxedo ART platform.
• Run both OLTP CICS and Batch mainframe applications on Tuxedo ART.
• Administer a rehosted application on the Tuxedo ART platform.
• Integrate rehosted applications with SOA technologies.
