The host is defined as the computer system (hardware and software) in which the central
database for Bankway resides. This is where core bank processing occurs. All banks differ in the
amount of hardware resources necessary to support the processing of the host computer.
This difference is due to many factors, including your bank’s specific business requirements.
Your bank needs to make a hardware capacity assessment to ensure that adequate capacity is
available to support the increased capabilities of Bankway and your bank’s specific business
plan.
Note: FIS Automation Services (KAS), a subsidiary of FIS Banking Solutions, can assist
your bank with hardware configuration planning.
FIS Hardware and Networking Division can provide Enterprise wide storage management
consulting, including sizing recommendations for disk and tape storage. Ask your Strategic
Account Manager to contact the Hardware & Network Services for assistance
Bankway operates in three different Host environments:
● IBM i/Series also known as AS/400
● IBM z/OS also known as MVS
● SUN Solaris UNIX
The network requirements for each are described in the following sections.
The host requires Ethernet connectivity hardware to support TCP/IP communications.
Configuration options will vary depending on the hardware platform and the model of the
processor. 100baseTX Ethernet is the FIS LAN standard.
