BTS data-containers

Stabilized feature: Service Flow Runtime and Service Flow Modeler capability in IBM Developer for z/OS 14.2.3 are stabilized. Consider exposing and orchestrating applications as API services by using z/OS Connect Enterprise Edition or CICS® web services, or by writing web applications in Java or Node.js. See also Stabilization notices and discontinued functions.

During request processing, BTS maintains the data-containers that are used to pass data between activities or between different invocations of the same activity.

Each data-container is associated with an activity or process; it is identified by its name and by the activity for which it is a container. Data-containers are recoverable resources. They are written to disk and are restored at system restart.
