I recently had use for accessing a web service from a Unisys A Series
mainframe. Unfortunately, as far as we can tell from the Unisys
documentation, it never occurred to Unisys that someone might want to access
a web service from a Unisys A Series mainframe, instead of on one. We put
the web service access in a PC based client, and transferred the data to the
mainframe using named pipes. It works, but the Unisys documentation for
named pipes is, to the extent that it even exists, very incomplete and
inaccurate. I spent many happy years programming Burroughs/Unisys
mainframes, and it saddens me to say that Unisys does not seem to know how
to adapt to the current environment.
