IBM Net.Commerce for AS/400 Version 3, 5798-NC3
Net.Commerce for A/400 Version 3 is a merchant solution that provides a framework to
conduct business on the Internet in a secure and scalable manner. It supports
business-to-consumer and business-to-business environments.
Net.Commerce for AS/400 Version 3 provides a complete e-commerce solution from catalog
and storefront creation to payment procession and integration into backend systems (for
example, order fulfillment, tax, and shipping). It uses the power of DB2 on the AS/400
system.
Net.Commerce consists of two components:
• Net.Commerce Server: Manages the interface to the buyers, which enables them to
browse, save, query, and order items in the interactive catalog.
• Net.Commerce Administrator: Provides a powerful authoring and administration
environment, which allows store personnel to design the buying process and create an
interactive product catalog. It includes the Site Manager, Store Manager, and Template
Designer.
The key strengths of Net.Commerce for AS/400, Version 3 include:
• Scalability: From single to multiple AS/400 systems
• Flexibility: Can be used to extend an existing online catalog site or to create a store or
an entire mall
• Dynamic capabilities: Information is dynamically pulled from the database and
populated into the Web pages
Net.Commerce is designed to provide flexibility so that the site look, feel, and flow can be
customized to meet individual preferences. Unlike other merchant servers, users are not
limited to a standardized storefront template. The creation of a unique and compelling
shopping experience helps drive traffic on your site.
Net.Commerce includes a Template Designer to let you design your own Web pages. Its
graphical look, drag-and-drop capabilities, and quick testing functions help you create and
test your pages. It can be used to create:
• A home page for a store or mall
