Harness the power of parallel computing

 
 
IBM Compilers. COBOL, Fortran, C/C++.
Powerful, no-hassle application programming

IBM® actively participates in the standardization process for C, C++, Fortran, COBOL, PL/I, and the OpenMP application programming interface. In addition to complying with their programming language standard, IBM compilers provide language extensions that can lower the effort to port an application to IBM systems. Given the consistent implementation of IBM compilers across all supported platforms, applications developed with XL C/C++ on AIX®, for example, can easily be moved to z/OS® on System z®.

Stay ahead of your competition

By periodically upgrading your compilers, you not only take advantage of new language features, extensions and usability improvements, you also get better application performance on new hardware without any source code changes. This allows you stay ahead of your competition on the technology curve and helps your business become more agile. Best of all you do not have to change your hardware to upgrade your compiler.

Take back your CPU cycles

IBM continues to develop its industry-leading optimization technology across multiple platforms, including AIX and Linux® on IBM POWER® Systems, and z/OS and z/VM® on IBM System z. Designed specifically to complement IBM processor architectures, IBM compilers optimize the performance of commercial and high-performance computing workloads. This reduces your CPU cycles, maximizing your IBM hardware investment.

Modernize your applications

IBM COBOL compilers provide features for customers to modernize their existing applications on IBM POWER systems. Compilers enable the integration of existing business-critical applications with dynamic web applications. They are extended to support interoperability with Java™ and promote the exchange and usage of data with XML.
