and DB2
Leverage traditional zSeries software and server ben-
efi ts: scalability, reliability, availability, performance and
serviceability
IBM 64-Bit SDK for z/OS, Java 2 Technology Edition, 1.4
(5655-I56) provides a full-function Software Development
Kit (SDK) at the Java 2 technology level, compliant with
the Sun SDK 1.4 APIs. With 64-bit SDK for z/OS, Java 2
Technology Edition, 1.4, you can run Java applications that

Unicode
z/OS provides Unicode Callable System Services – code
page and case conversions from EBCDIC to Unicode:
DB2 V7 is the fi rst exploiter
New hardware instruction on zSeries servers has been
implemented to provide superior performance
Unicode Normalization Services allows programmers to
decompose or compose characters from another code
page and can apply normalization forms to have the
same meaning.
REXX Functions
z/OS V1.4 extends the REXX language on z/OS when
used in a UNIX System Services zSeries REXX environ-
ment. It includes functions for standard REXX I/O and to
easily access some common fi le services and environ-
ments variables.
Communication Services
z/OS Version 1 Release 6 base elements
z/OS Communications Server (Multiprotocol/HPR Services, TCP/IP
Services, SNA/APPN Services)
OSA Support Facility
z/OS Version 1 Release 6 optional no-charge features
z/OS Communications Server Security Level 3
The z/OS base includes z/OS Communication Server,
which enables: world class TCP/IP and SNA networking
support, including enterprise class dependability; perfor-
mance and scalability; highly secure connectivity; sup-
port for multiple protocols; and effi cient use of networking
assets.
z/OS can provide near continuous availability for TCP/IP
applications and their users with two key features in z/OS:
Sysplex Distributor and Dynamic VIPA.
