Seamless Cross-System Integration and High-Speed File Transfer for the Hybrid Enterprise.

Orchestration

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.

File Transfer

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.

Architecture

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 cross-platform integration across your mainframe-centric environment. Available for z/OS, Linux x86, Windows, and macOS, this dual-role capability ensures scalability and adaptability across diverse and evolving IT environments.

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 ›

Connect/Hybrid — Platform Support

Built for Both Ends of the Connection.

Connect/Hybrid runs natively on each side of every integration — so there’s no translation layer between your mainframe and your distributed systems.

Connect/Hybrid is a client-server product. A native instance runs on each end of the connection — z/OS on one side, Windows, Linux, or macOS on the other — with each installation capable of acting as server or client depending on the direction of the transfer.

Because both ends run the same codebase, the same encryption, compression, and API behavior applies across every platform — integrations are consistent and testable on any machine in your environment. Most cross-platform tools put a gateway or translation layer in the middle. Connect/Hybrid removes that — both sides are peers.

Why it matters

Both sides of the wire — both ends run native Connect/Hybrid instances; no protocol adapters, no format conversion, no middleware in between.

Deploy where your applications live — install a Connect/Hybrid instance on Linux, Windows, or macOS — wherever your distributed application tier runs — and connect directly to your z/OS side.

One protocol everywhere — the same AES-256 encryption, data integrity, and API surface on every platform; integrations work the same in development and production.

Distributed platform licenses are included as part of every Connect/MP z/OS license.
