Leverage valuable logic without recoding
Bring mission-critical applications into the modern world without touching code. It’s easy with API connectivity for Adabas & Natural and COBOL applications.
Adabas & Natural API Connectivity
Modernize applications one click at a time
Adabas & Natural solves your problems
- Modernize Fast
- Re-use What Works
- Hide Mainframe Complexity
- Integrate Without Coding
- Accelerate Your Move To Microservices
Modernize Fast
Give a modern look and feel to Natural, COBOL, RPG or any other 3GL application. Transform screen-based programs into modern web interfaces without code changes.
Re-use What Works
Create new APIs from proven programming logic and transactions for consumption by .NET, Java® and cloud-based applications.
Hide Mainframe Complexity
Offer a simple interface using APIs to hide mainframe complexity. Assure friendly mobile access to mission-critical capabilities.
Integrate Without Coding
Easily connect core applications to other systems by using APIs, the “lingua franca” of standards-based interoperability.
Accelerate Your Move To Microservices
Run Adabas & Natural functionality as microservices on distributed and scalable container platforms.
Modernization, Simplified
API connectivity is the quickest way to re-use Adabas & Natural and COBOL business logic in new digital projects and services. Once you’ve API-enabled Adabas & Natural applications, you can use them on API management platforms, such as webMethods, for added visibility, security, governance, monetization and analytics for APIs.
What you can do with API connectivity
API-enable The Mainframe
- Produce high-performing and secure APIs for established business applications
- Provide Natural and COBOL business logic as RESTful APIs
- Hide mainframe complexity while ensuring operational excellence
Integrate With Ease
- Use APIs to standardize how you integrate internal and external systems
- Improve interoperability with internal and external stakeholders by using REST and OpenAPI specifications
Improve Access To Adabas Data
- Access Adabas data via SQL or data replication in real time without changing your application
- Replicate Adabas data streams to develop event-driven APIs
Key Benefits
Drive down costs
Your agency has invested significant resources to create and maintain the critical business logic that runs on your core systems. If that business logic is needed by other systems, the least costly approach is API connectivity to expose that business logic without changing any code.
Improve the user experience
Modernize user interfaces to assure consistent and intuitive interaction with all of your applications. Make applications easier to use and accessible anywhere, anytime.
Reduce risks
Take a low-risk, non-invasive approach to modernizing mission-critical systems. Avoid a risky “rip-and-replace” initiative by reusing core applications instead.
Increase productivity
Trigger new business processes using established mainframe applications. Automate actions to eliminate redundancies and manual processes.
