Updated Host Integration Server 2004 Product Guide

September 21, 2004
Culminis Team

A few years ago Bill Zack wrote a book on Integrating Windows with Mainframe systems.  Based on that book Microsoft hired him to write their Host Integration Server Product Guide. He has just completed a 2004 update of that Product Guide.  It is available for download here.

Get an overview of the integration components provided by Host Integration Server 2004. The integration components enable data integration, application integration, network integration and security integration of host-based systems with Microsoft .NET platform-based applications.

Included in this updated Product Guide:

  • Introduction

  • Data Integration Layer

  • Application Integration Layer

  • Network Integration Layer

  • Security Integration Layer

  • Management Services

  • Summary
