Value of REXX in Client/Server Computing

Some advantages of using REXX for implementing client/server solutions are:
  • The availability of REXX interpreter support under REXX/CICS with its quick development cycle and excellent source-based interactive debugging allows the rapid prototyping and development of complex systems.
  • The high-level client/server interfaces in REXX/CICS can improve development productivity and lower maintenance costs
  • Because REXX/CICS allows REXX clients and servers to be recoded in non-REXX languages, performance intensive parts of an application system can be selectively rewritten, if needed.
The FLST and EDIT commands that REXX/CICS provides are examples of client/server environments.
