Specializing in highly technical projects in the Mainframe environment The implementation of threadsafe via the Open
Transaction Environment marks a radical change in CICS capabilities.
When first announced, threadsafe was implemented primarily for the
significant CPU savings achievable with CICS/DB2 transactions
(customers report up to 30% reduction in CPU for some CICS/DB2
applications.) Now, a second wave of threadsafe implementers are
finding significant advantages in converting non-DB2 applications to
threadsafe, including:
However, some customers are reporting transaction
abends and significant increases in CPU if threadsafe is implemented
incorrectly. The Evans Group, Inc. can supply expert assistance in
reviewing, analyzing and converting your programs to be threadsafe
compliant, and in training your programmers in threadsafe conversion
techniques. z/Journal has published an article on threadsafe and DB2 that Russ co-wrote with Nate Murphy. Russ has also written two articles on CICS and Threadsafe for
Technical Support, the journal of NaSpa:
CICS 2.2 and Threadsafe and Making
Programs Threadsafe.
