Overview
Rocket Enterprise Developer is an advanced mainframe development toolset that enables developers to efficiently build, maintain, and modernize IBM mainframe COBOL and PL/I applications using an Eclipse-based integrated development environment. It streamlines development workflows with a fully featured code editor, compiler, debugger, and testing environment, all while offloading tasks from the mainframe to improve efficiency and reduce costs. Developers can work with IBM subsystems such as CICS, IMS TM, and JES, as well as access and edit mainframe data in VSAM, QSAM, DB2, and IMS DB formats. The toolset accelerates application testing with a built-in unit test framework, coding standards enforcement, and code coverage support, ensuring higher quality and reliability. Rocket Enterprise Developer also supports modernization efforts by enabling COBOL and PL/I applications to integrate with modern database platforms and expose core business functions as services, facilitating API-driven and cloud-based transformation. With its rich feature set and seamless integration into DevOps pipelines, Rocket Enterprise Developer enhances productivity and innovation while preserving the value of existing mainframe applications.
