March 2009 IssueTaking Your COBOL to the Web ‘Servlet-Style’

Servlets offer a streamlined deployment model over CGI for server-side implementations

By Dovid Lubin

isCOBOL brings the benefits of the Java platform to COBOL applications without rewriting code and retraining programmers. isCOBOL compiled programs are 100% portable and run on any device that supports a Java Virtual Machine. This provides an ‘instant’ solution for thin client deployments, but what if your business is looking for an even lighter weight approach? If you are looking to expose COBOL business logic directly to a browser or Web Service, deploying COBOL programs as Java servlets provides a convenient way to add custom functionality without changing back- end program code.
