System z in a Mobile World
System z addresses Enterprise mobile development and delivery challenges
Fragmentation and developing for multiple
mobile platforms
• Highly fragmented set of devices, platforms,
languages, and tools complicates
development, test, and operations
• Seamless integration with z data
and transactions.
• Device runtime provides mobile
device independence.
Accelerated time to market requirements
System z Scalability
• Accelerated development demands instant
provisioning of development servers.
• System z Linux cloud enables rapid
provisioning of Worklight servers.
• Spikey mobile traffic demands highly
scalable cloud-based infrastructures, for
both SoE and SoR.
• z/OS is the leader in transaction
processing and easily scalable to
handle workload increases.
Connecting apps with existing
enterprise systems
• Apps typically need to leverage existing
enterprise services, which must be made
mobile-consumable, and remain secure.
• Enterprise systems must be able to instantly
provision new services and environments.

z/OS is mobile enabled
• z/OS subsystems are mobile-ready,
with consumability enhancements

• End to end mobile security.
• High-performance access from z/Linux

System z Unique Characteristics to support Mobile Applications





Easy-to-consume APIs from CICS, DB2, IMS allow you to leverage your
investment in z/OS transactions to quickly add a mobile channel.
z/OS enables massive and simple scalability in a single footprint, to handle the
workload of millions of devices and sensors
Worklight security integrates with z/OS security providing end-to-end security
and data privacy for mobile apps.
z/OS Workload Management ensures your crucial applications remain
responsive during sharp spikes in demand.
Low-latency access to critical enterprise data. Mobile usage patterns favor short, read-only data
requests (Users check account balances) So fast access to operational data, with low latency, is key. The mainframe
offers exceptional I/O with dedicated hardware I/O processors. This reduces latency, which increases mobile app
response times.

Business Resiliency for critical mobile apps
“70% of mobile applications touch a mainframe system”
Infrastructure matters for mobile applications. The
System z platform’s scalability, security, and
resilience can enhance critical mobile applications.

Why run Worklight Server on System z Linux?
For the same reasons you run web apps there for over a decade:

Co-location of the Worklight server application with data and transactions on z/OS
reduces the latency of access to z/OS data. Hipersockets provides the lowest latency
communication between Worklight apps and z/OS SOR. Hipersockets eliminates the need to encrypt traffic between
Worklight and z/OS.

Availability and scalability of z/Linux as an environment for both Worklight dev/test
and production.

Hardware encryption speeds SSL applications

All the traditional advantages of consolidating multiple distributed servers onto
z/Linux -- Reduce data center footprint, WAS software license savings, simpler
management, energy savings.
We recommend running Worklight Server in System
z Linux for data-rich applications that will heavily
leverage data and transactions from z/OS.
See this wiki for more rationale for WL on z.

First National Bank (FNB)
Achieving sub-second response for hundreds of millions of
monthly transactions on the mainframe
Mobile and IMS
The need:
The ubiquity and convenience of cellphones and tablets as computing devices
represented a clear growth opportunity for FNB; in South Africa, more people have
cellphones and smart mobile devices than bank accounts. FNB wanted to launch a
reliable, secure and highly responsive mobile channel before its competitors, and
looked for a platform that would enable very short time-to-market.
The solution:
FNB integrated a new Java-based mobile front-end directly with tried-and-trusted
business logic and core banking services running on IBM® Information
Management System (IMS™) on an IBM zEnterprise® EC12 server. IBM IMS
Enterprise Suite Connect APIs for Java and C and IBM IMS Enterprise Suite SOAP
Gateway manage links between the channel applications and core functionality and
data on the mainframe.
The benefit:
 Rapid deployment enabled FNB to gain first-mover advantage in the market,
gaining the number one spot for mobile banking
 Ultra-low average end-to-end response times of 30 milliseconds ensure snappy
performance for mobile banking users
 Fast, secure and reliable mobile banking generates more business for FNB and
reduces its average cost per transaction
“We don’t start from the
premise that the mainframe
is best; rather, we look at the
requirements—big data, huge
numbers of concurrent
processes, high performance,
high scalability, high
security—and then look at
what technology can deliver
all of those things. The
answer is IBM zEnterprise
and IMS.”

BMW Group
Develops eco-friendly innovation for smart drivers
Mobile and DB2
The need:
World-leading car manufacturer BMW Group wanted to develop
sustainable and smarter driving strategies, in line with the market’s
pressing requests. The company knew that any difficulties in managing
the mountain of data created by these mobile applications would mean
risking to lose business opportunities.
The solution:
BMW Group implemented IBM® DB2® 11 for z/OS®, which offers
optimized management of information and workload and enhanced cost
savings. Furthermore, the company is soon planning to leverage the
latest-generation IBM zEnterprise® EC12 mainframe.
The benefit:
 Enabled BMW Group to allocate resources to the development of
new mobility strategies, rather than database management.
 Supported continuous workload increase on a 24/7 basis.
 Reduced CPU usage by 8-13 percent, improving cost-efficiency.
“Despite still being very early
in our performance testing, we
have already seen CPU
reductions of 8-13 percent on
some of the workloads, thanks
to the more efficient
decompression algorithms that
IBM DB2 allows us to run.”
— Manager, BMW Group

Tesco PLC
Tesco gets 16-day ROI for Worklight on System z mobile solution with CICS
Mobile and CICS
The need:
Tesco differentiates itself is its network of distribution centers, which use
advanced technology to support a modern, efficient and cost-effective
supply chain. Distribution center managers had to access this Denver
system from a terminal in an office, and then make a number of journeys
across the massive facilities to work with their teams in the fulfillment
process, and do so without real-time access to data.
Solution components:
The solution:
Worklight on Linux on System z – used existing CICS transactions -allowed Tesco’s distribution center managers to access warehouse
information on a mobile device, accessible at all 25 centers and
throughout each 500,000 square foot facility. With the IBM Worklight
solution on Linux on System z, Tesco managers will now have contextual
data in an easy-to-read, mobile-rendered format, and be able to make
accurate deployment decisions with real-time data as they move through
the facilities.
The benefit:
 The indicative results of the POC demonstrated cost savings of about
$2.45 million per year, which equated to an approximate return on
investment of only 16 days.
