4 Integrate mobile across the enterprise Mobile technology leaders know they must integrate mobile applications with back-end systems such as IMS 74% of CIOs say mobile solutions are part of their vision for increasing competitiveness 4

5 First National Bank (FNB) Achieving sub-second response for hundreds of millions of monthly transactions on the mainframe 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.

50 IMS Mobile Feature Pack IMS Mobile is a comprehensive solution with which clients can discover IMS assets, model asset metadata, and enable and publish those assets as RESTful services. Once published, those services are hosted by IMS Mobile for discovery by mobile and cloud Application Developers. Associated tooling is delivered via IMS Explorer for Development

51 The IMS Mobile Business Offers a comprehensive offering for different phases of your mobile deployment IMS Mobile Feature Pack (via IMS Enterprise Suite GA June 13, 2014 ) Deliver IMS applications and data to mobile and cloud developers in a secure, governed, and optimized way via: An integrated platform that supports full discovery, modeling, enablement, and deployment of both IMS transactions and IMS data A singular approach for System z clients using WAS, CICS, IMS, and DB2 IMS TM Value Unit Edition (VUE) (and/or IMS DB VUE) Offers flexibility in managing costs of your workload growth via OTC pricing model IMS TM VUE and IMS DB VUE are included as the Mobile Workload Pricing (MWP) Defining Programs MWP announced May 6, 2014) 51
