Visual COBOL by Paul Kelly

Companies around the world are trying to solve a critical IT conundrum: How do they harness and integrate long-standing, core business systems, written in COBOL, with a new era of Java-based technologies and modern IT architecture? Those who are successful have learned how to tap into the power of their existing applications and have transformed their IT systems into first-class citizens of the digital world. Underpinning this transformation are new tools from Micro Focus that offer the ability to compile COBOL directly to Java Byte Code and seamlessly integrate with modern Java architectures.

With Visual COBOL: New Application Modernization Tools for the Java Developer, you will discover how to bridge these two worlds using REST architectures, containers, and Cloud-and from within a familiar development toolset. Re-imagine software development and application modernization using the power of Visual COBOL. Brought to you by Micro Focus, the leader in COBOL development tools, this book is written for you-the Java developer. Key features include:
  • A real-world example to illustrate key concepts
  • An explanation of the Java object model for the COBOL developer
  • A quick getting-started guide to the COBOL language-designed for the Java developer
  • Patterns and practices to help Java developers bridge COBOL and Java
  • Free access to the student edition of Visual COBOL
