Oracle Tuxedo Application Runtime for CICS provides a runtime environment for IBM CICS applications.

• Preprocessors for COBOL and C programs that expand EXEC CICS macros and map CICS keywords into runtime interfaces.
• A runtime environment based on Oracle Tuxedo that executes CICS programs and transactions, and provides required functions and services, including interoperability with IBM CICS on z/OS.
• A 3270 terminal server for Oracle Tuxedo that enables tn3270 terminal emulators to interact with CICS programs and transactions migrated to Tuxedo ART in the same way they interact with CICS on an IBM mainframe.
• Access to VSAM files, Oracle Database, DB2, IMS DB, and other data sources.
• A range of built-in integrations for CICS applications, including IBM WMQ, Sockets, CPI-C, APPC/DTP, DPL, SOAP and REST Web Services.
• CICS authentication support via LDAP, Microsoft Active Directory, or IBM RACF on z/OS.
• An ATMI user interface server for Oracle Tuxedo that enables a broad range of UIs connected over ATMI to interact with CICS programs and transactions migrated to Tuxedo ART without changing the application program code.
• Integration with TSAM Plus for real-time monitoring of CICS transactions and terminals with detailed Callpath tracing, alerting, and CICS resource management using TSAM Manager.
• Integration with TSAM Plus plug-in for OEM-based (Oracle Enterprise Manager) monitoring and management with in-depth availability and performance metrics, on-demand cloud provisioning, and elastic cloud scale-out.
