In focus - z/OS UNIX System Services (USS)

Our unique advantage? The ability to offer UNIX courses across any number of platforms - from PC Intel based, to mainframe z/OS. The approach we use: a number of generic courses focus on UNIX, shell scripting, etc. Followed by a number of more advanced courses treating system and environment specific characteristics and properties in greater detail.

An example? Just check-out our course 'z/OS UNIX System Services'.

The above figure clearly shows our areas of expertise - areas relevant to most if not all system programmers: how to interface with USS; how to configure USS; the interaction and relationship between USS and z/OS (for instance with respect to storage/filesystems, security, etc.); and USS system tuning.

How do we offer our expertise?

• by means of a number of short, one-day courses of rather conceptual nature - allowing us for example to stress the main distinction between UNIX and USS;
• through a number of system management courses, e.g. z/OS UNIX System Services (USS);
• through a number of introductory courses focusing on 'UNIX on the mainframe' - we typically combine basic UNIX/Linux and USS-specific topics

We often discuss USS and related topics within the context of (the use and implementation of) WebSphere Application Server on the z/OS platform.
