The What You Need To Know (WYNTK) series of lectures are the definitive technical overviews of specific capability areas in CICS TS V5. This session highlights the value of extending your existing investments to leverage the mobile phenomenon & the exponential growth it generates. The proven qualities of service of CICS on z Systems, makes it an ideal candidate to host mobile services & mitigate the risk of this rapidly changing landscape. CICS' ability to handle RESTful services including JSON & XML, opens the door for mobile developers to access the existing power of your core business services by exposing them as microservices that provide self-contained pieces of functionality. To further illustrate this value in CICS you will hear 3 examples built around mobile enablement, other RESTful services and the API economy.-Chris Poole-IBM Corporation
