CAIENF

The CAI Event Notification Facility (CAIENF) is an operating system interface service that offers a simple and flexible approach for CA Technologies products to obtain data from z/OS. By centralizing operating system interfaces within CAIENF, many features which were formerly available within a single product can be shared across the entire product line. CAIENF features include:

• Dynamic installation and reconfiguration
• True recovery from system or individual power outages
• High performance asynchronous processing
• Single interface between CA Technologies products and operating system data
• Built-in diagnostic aids
• Ease of customization
• Exploitation of relational database technology
