The Cloud Data Access (CDA) component of DFSMSdfp provides a REST-based method
that allows z/OS data to reside securely in the cloud. Using the APIs provided,
data can be written and retrieved from the cloud directly to and from z/OS,
allowing installations the flexibility to put not just archive data, but any
sort of data in the cloud. In this session, we'll give a ground-level view of
our journey to using CDA to create facilities that allow datasets to reside in
the cloud without requiring any changes to JCL or FTP. We'll discuss the tweaks
we found necessary for different cloud vendors, and take a look at the issues
organizations should consider as they assess their readiness for a cloud-based
world. -- Presented by Steve Pryor; Tom Williamson
