An advanced programme for CICS developers who build robust, high-performance transaction applications. It covers channels and containers, asynchronous processing, temporary storage and transient data, browse and error-handling techniques, integration with Db2 and MQ, and debugging and performance-aware coding. Labs mirror production design problems on enterprise CICS systems.
