Overview:
Enable powerful frameworks for AI and ML
IBM® Open Enterprise SDK for Python is a Python compiler and interpreter for IBM® z/OS®. It helps support your z/OS applications written in Python. Use it to modernize your critical applications by developing APIs, plug-ins and wrappers to extend business-critical applications for faster delivery.
Run Python on z/OS
Use Python on z/OS and use Python codecs package for EBCDIC, ASCII and UTF encoding interoperability.
Integrate AI/ML for advanced analysis
Use the most popular Python packages on mainframe to conduct advanced data analysis with the Python AI Toolkit for IBM z/OS.
Streamline automation
Automate applications and IT infrastructure with Python and Ansible® to manage your z/OS resources like any other platform.
Interact with z/OS
Harness existing infrastructure, use IBM Z® Open Automation Utilities to interact with datasets and submit JCL.
Features:
Access to Python AI Toolkit for IBM z/OS and PyPI
Get pre-built Python AI packages from the Python AI Toolkit for IBM z/OS and Python Package Index packages (PyPI). Gain access to a growing collection of several thousand freely available Python community modules and frameworks—from individual programs and components to packages and full application development frameworks. These modules are available from the Python Package Index.
Python native container for z/OS
IBM Open Enterprise SDK for Python, enabled in the IBM z/OS Container Platform, streamlines Python deployment, scalability and management in a containerized z/OS environment.
zIIP eligibility
Use zIIP specialty processors to offload Python workloads that normally run on general processors. This approach enables flexible deployment of Python applications to reduce cost, accelerate digital transformation and free up CPU resources.
Ability to convert code sets
Using Python's codecs package—the standard Python encoding facilities—you can produce and consume data in EBCDIC, UTF and several other encodings.
Native Python compiler and interpreter for z/OS
Bring the modern Python programming language to the z/OS platform. Python is an easy-to-learn, high-level, interpreted and general-purpose dynamic programming language that focuses on code readability, enabling you to build fast and scalable applications.
Python Standard Library
Access to the Python Standard Library provides you with an extensive set of functions that can save development resources and reduce costs when creating applications. The library includes highly used programming tasks in areas like string operations, cryptology, threading, networking, internet and web service tools, operating system interfaces and protocols.
