Connect/MP

Connect/MP is a powerful, enterprise-grade solution that combines industry-leading ZIP compression, seamless cross-platform integration, and robust legacy modernization capabilities. Unlike traditional approaches that require multiple tools and costly licensing, Connect/MP delivers these features in a unified platform — now enhanced with Connect/Web and Connect/AI.

Connect/Web provides modern, secure web-based access and real-time connectivity to your enterprise data and mainframe assets, while Connect/AI brings intelligent automation, AI-driven insights, and smart data processing capabilities directly into your workflows.

It’s a smart, cost-effective investment for organizations looking to reduce operational overhead, streamline data exchange, and maximize the value of their existing mainframe infrastructure with modern, scalable access.

Whether you’re modernizing core business systems, embracing hybrid cloud strategies, enabling secure real-time data sharing, deploying web-enabled solutions, or harnessing AI to unlock deeper value from your data, Connect/MP with Connect/Web and Connect/AI delivers the performance, flexibility, and ROI your enterprise needs.

Most modernization strategies force a choice: rebuild from scratch, or stay where you are. Connect/MP is built on a different premise — that your mainframe is not a liability to work around, but a high-performance foundation worth extending.

“Built for Today” means your production workloads run on proven, battle-tested infrastructure — compression, cross-platform data exchange, USS integration, client-server connectivity — all performing reliably at enterprise scale, right now.

“Ready for Tomorrow” means that same platform already speaks the languages of modern IT. Browser-based access without a JVM. REST APIs without a middleware layer. AI inference running natively on z/OS. Not on a roadmap — shipping today.

The result is a platform that grows with your organization’s ambitions without requiring you to abandon what already works. No rip-and-replace. No architectural gamble. Just continuous, compounding value from a single unified suite.

The mainframe wasn’t left behind. It was ready first.
