Description

Set up and configure the IBM Mainframe scanner to extract metadata from up to one hundred (100) Job Control Language (JCL) programs in a typical mainframe application (i.e., banking system, insurance management system, etc.) and ingest this metadata and lineage into Cloud Data Governance and Catalog (CDGC) to support data management and integration. 

Key activities include:

(i) reviewing related business drivers and defining a use case for scanner implementation

(ii) confirming technical requirements 

(iii) configuring the IBM Mainframe scanner 

(iv) executing scanning processes

(v) facilitating knowledge transfer to Customer CDGC subject matter experts   (this will be completed on an iterative basis over the course of the engagement) 

Note: A high level of collaboration with the Customer CDGC subject matter experts is crucial to successful scanner implementation. 

Customer Prerequisites
Business/Technical Outcomes

• Up to one hundred (100) JCL programs scanned, with the intent to provide detailed insights into the mainframe application 

Note: The IBM Mainframe scanner can create technical assets, such as programs, copybooks, calculations, JCL steps, JCL jobs, etc. The number of assets scanned into CDGC depends on various factors, such as complexity of code and how jobs are organized.

• Technical assets and lineage generated within CDGC

• Customer CDGC subject matter experts equipped with the guidance to independently deploy, configure, and refine IBM Mainframe scanner projects

• Deployment documentation provided to support ongoing operations and ensure a clear understanding of the deployment process

Document Deliverables

• CDGC IBM Mainframe Scanner Technical Requirements and Scope Definition Document

• MetaDex CDGC IBM Mainframe Scanner Deployment Runbook
