How Rational COBOL RunTime for z/VSE can help your business
Rational® COBOL Runtime for z/VSE® provides the libraries to enable EGL code, generated as COBOL, to run on the z/VSE platform. EGL, an IBM business language, frees developers to focus on the business problem rather than on the details of the target execution platforms and associated middleware. EGL is ideal for business-oriented development teams who value ease of learning and high productivity, but need to quickly deliver applications and services. Rational COBOL Runtime for z/VSE provides an alternative path to COBOL adoption and hides middleware and runtime complexities, enabling developers to achieve the highest levels of productivity.
