How to call PASE (Python, PHP, Node.js) functions

[andreas-prouza]

Sure, you can call them by using the QSH command. QSH ('python myproject/test.py')

Problems

• Parameter in/output handling is not easy here.
• Performance is not optimal, because of the PASE environment (including the sub-jobs) which needs to get started all the time

Solution Use it as a micro service via ...

• Web Service
• or Data queue

With this, you have a well defined interface, without any dependencies of the backend. E.g.:

• You don't need to know the language of the service
• You even don't know it the service is running on IBM i or somewhere else

Both supports synchronous & asynchronous processing.
