This white paper describes how SOA and CICS technologies have converged to create the opportunity to build new business processes - and how one can take advantage of this opportunity. Because these SOA technologies are all based on open standards, the CICS applications have the ability to work with virtually any other application that conforms to the same standards. And one doesn't need specific CICS skills. One can build new processes using integration programmers, for example, freeing the prized CICS skills to focus on where they're most needed.
