MODERNIZATION

HostBridge has the technology to build business-oriented APIs for CICS modernization. The HostBridge JavaScript Engine (HB.js) allows the creation and implementation of APIs inside CICS. Creating APIs with HB.js is most efficient, both in terms of the development process and time, as well as execution speed. Furthermore, the APIs are agnostic with respect to the applications and environments with which they interact.
Create 15 to 35% infrastructure year-over-year savings
Lower application maintenance and run costs by 30-50%
Not All APIs are the Same
Technology-based APIs are platform-dependent APIs that expose the details of the current implementation of some business logic or data. This API requires more effort and skill to exploit because of the tight coupling these APIs create.


Rather than developing APIs to call specific programs, it’s better to design APIs around business-level activities. They create a loose-coupling that requires less effort to use, and they are less brittle than technology-based APIs.
