This e-learning course introduces selected options for developing web applications that use Java components to interface with back-end business logic written in RPG (or COBOL). We will cover some of the design decisions you will need to make as well as how various technologies, such as Ajax, CSS, HTML, JavaScript, and Java Server Pages (JSPs), fit into the web development picture. The primary focus of the course will be how to develop applications that feature Java-based (as opposed to .Net-based) architecture. The course features WebSphere Studio Development Client for iSeries/System i (WDSc) tools that you can use to streamline development of browser-based applications in an iSeries/System i environment.

Modernization of System i applications is not limited to simply providing GUIs for end-users. In many business applications, the real work is done in server programs that don't require user interaction.
Using RPG as a business applications language and Java as a provider of server-side services, you can greatly increase the usefulness of System i applications by providing needed features for modern business requirements. Java provides a wealth of tested, usable code that you can run on your System i to work with RPG programs.
