Are your COBOL applications straining your mainframe’s capacity?
Your COBOL applications have reliably powered the most critical operations of your enterprise for decades. Unique to your business, they are among your most valuable assets. Today, your success demands these applications process ever-increasing workloads. As batch processing consumes more General Processor resources, you may have less room for new and growing workloads. What if you could reclaim the capacity to support what’s next?

Não caia nas falsas promessas de migração
When processing demands push your General Processor (GP) to capacity limits, you have less room for growth. Migration projects may promise relief, but moving mission-critical data or rewriting applications poses unpredictable timelines and unacceptable risks. Fortunately, there is a smarter way to reclaim mainframe capacity and create space for growth without jeopardizing business continuity.
Take the smart path: Redistribute workloads efficiently
Smarter workload optimization makes this possible. By redistributing your COBOL workload across your mainframe’s available processing resources, you immediately reclaim valuable GP capacity for new and growing workloads and system resilience improvements. It’s a straightforward way to optimize the resources you rely on today while ensuring your infrastructure supports what comes next.
JOPAZ
A risk-free path to greater efficiency and performance
With JOPAZ, you can optimize COBOL workloads to free up capacity without disrupting business operations. Don’t risk compromising your business—keep what works. Create space to grow and innovate by dramatically reducing COBOL batch workloads running on the general processor by over 80%.
- Reclaim over 80% of GP capacity for COBOL batch workloads
- Free up space for new and growing workloads
- Garanta a continuidade nos negócios com uma abordagem de baixo risco que permite que você mantenha seu código COBOL
Como o JOPAZ funciona
Compile COBOL para Java
JOPAZ compiles the source code of high-utilization COBOL workloads into Java bytecode at runtime, making them eligible to run on zIIP.
Redistribute workload to zIIP
JOPAZ then redistributes the Java-compiled COBOL workloads to Java Virtual Machines (JVMs) running on IBM zIIP, freeing capacity on the General Processor. No code rewrites, code conversion, or developer retraining needed.
Access data sources
Maintain reliable access to Db2®, Adabas, VSAM files and sequential files on z/OS with optimized runtime support. Dynamic and static SQL access to Db2 continues seamlessly, while JOPAZ JDBC connectivity can allow you to redistribute up to 60% of Db2 workload to zIIP for compounded capacity optimization.
Optimize performance for JCL and batch integrations
Preserve os workflows JCL existentes com o tempo de execução JOPAZ otimizado, compatível com operações DFSORT e Syncsort. Rotinas externas 3GL e Assembler integram-se sem modificações, garantindo equivalência funcional completa com seu ambiente de processamento batch atual.
Desenvolva e depure com as ferramentas de sua preferência
JOPAZ leaves your COBOL source code untouched. You can continue to use traditional COBOL development tools or modernize the developer experience with other Eclipse-based environments. Adopt DevOps practices with a distributed version control system like Git. JOPAZ supports all these options.
Mantenha a continuidade dos negócios no IBM Z
Keep the IBM Z performance, security, and reliability your business depends on while dramatically reducing COBOL batch workloads running on the general processor by over 80%. With JOPAZ, you can avoid the risks of rip & replace and keep your business running without disruption.
