Seamless Cross-System Integration and High-Speed File Transfer for the Hybrid Enterprise.
Hybrid Integration Without the Complexity
Connect/Hybrid replaces low-level scripting and middleware with high-level z/OS batch JCL, allowing teams to build integrations using existing skills. Data streams in real time between z/OS and distributed systems — no file staging, no intermediaries — delivering fast, secure integration across mainframe, distributed, and cloud environments.
High-Speed File Transfer with FIT Protocol
Our proprietary Fast Internet Transport (FIT) protocol combines the reliability of TCP with the speed of UDP to accelerate large file transfers across high-latency and long-distance networks — achieving speeds significantly faster than traditional FTP, even under challenging network conditions.
Flexible Client-Server Architecture
Deploy Connect/Hybrid as a client, server, or both at each connection point — offering unmatched flexibility for enterprise file transfer and integration. This dual-role capability ensures scalability and adaptability across diverse and evolving IT environments.
Automated File Monitoring and Workflow Triggers
When qualifying files are detected, the File Monitor feature automatically triggers the associated Connect/MP action — enabling automated processing, transformation, and delivery without modifying existing batch jobs. Traditional file processing extends seamlessly into modern automation workflows across all Connect/MP components.
Cost-Effective OpenPGP for z/OS — Without the Overhead
Connect/Hybrid's hybrid OpenPGP feature connects z/OS with Free GnuPG to deliver native-compatible PGP encryption and decryption — without the performance overhead, licensing costs, or administrative burden of traditional mainframe PGP solutions. Read the white paper ›
