High-Performance Query and Reporting for CICS

IMAGINE is CCA's high-performance query and reporting system for CICS environments. It enables users to develop complex reports against large volumes of data by using simple panel-driven screens. Like other CCA products, IMAGINE is designed to make the most cost-effective use of your machine environment. The development facilities enable you to prepare and test all aspects of data extraction, formatting, and presentation within your report with limited subsets of data before running against large volumes.

A comprehensive range of reporting options, including predefined functions and field manipulation, empowers users to write, manage, and execute complex queries against data resident on your enterprise server, without the overhead, loss of flexibility, or security concerns in distributing data to local platforms.

IMAGINE offers you the option of running in on-line or batch modes, so that you can run routine work off-peak, while running urgent reports against the latest data at any time.It also provides an interface to Model 204 that enables you to apply IMAGINE's outstanding querying power to the world's best enterprise-scale database management system. IMAGINE also has interfaces with other environments, including DB2 and DL/1.
