Interfacing to WebSphere MQ
 MQ is available on many platforms
 On z/OS it has interfacing to:
– CICS
– IMS
– Batch or TSO

MQ functions
 Common application programming interface (MQI)
 Assured delivery: messages do not get lost and
they arrive only once
 No synchronous access needed
 Message driven application
 Quicker development due to shielding of the
network

Summary
 Messaging and queuing enables communication between
applications on different platforms.
 WebSphere MQ is an example of software that manages
messaging and queuing in the mainframe and other
environments.
 With messaging, programs communicate by through
messages, rather than by calling each other directly.
 With queuing, messages are retained on queues in
storage, so that programs can run independently of each
other (asynchronously).
