z/Scope Anywhere is based on a 3-tier architecture composed by:
The client:
HTML5-capable Web Browser
The server:
z/Scope Anywhere Server
The host:
IBM Mainframe, Midrange or Unix system.
How it works
The remote user connects to the z/Scope Anywhere server using any HTML5 compliant browser. Once the connection is established the server will start interpreting commands to the specific host/protocol and sends back the results after converting the updated screens to native web structures.
