Jubilant Technical Overview

The Jubilant Server will connect to virtually any system that uses a form based or character based terminal connection protocol. On the rare occasion that Jubilant encounters a previously un-provisioned protocol it generally takes around 2–3 days to assimilate the new protocol to full compliance within the Jubilant application.

Supported systems

  • IBM Mainframes — TN3270
  • AS400 / iSeries / IBM i — TN5250
  • UNIX / Linux / IBM P AIX — VT100, VT220, VT320, VT-420, SCO ANSI, ADDS ViewPoint, Wyse 50, Wyse 60
  • DEC-VMS / OpenVMS — VT100, VT220, VT320, VT420
  • Tandem NonStop — TN3270
  • Dell UNIKIX — TN3270
  • Pick / MultiValue — ADDS ViewPoint, VT220, SCO ANSI, Wyse 50, Wyse 60, AccuTerm

Browsers

Jubilant TE emulation will run on the following browsers:
  • Apple Safari
  • Microsoft Internet Explorer 11
  • Microsoft Edge
  • Mozilla Firefox
  • Google Chrome

Supported devices

Jubilant Terminal Emulator will run on any device regardless of operating system; all that is required is one of the aforementioned web browsers to be present. Depending on the size and the interface being used, Jubilant will automatically resize and rescale the interface to suit. If a capacitive (touch screen) interface is being used, Jubilant will provide full touch support, automatically converting appropriate objects for touch use. Pinch to zoom and other device native expectations are accommodated and delivered out of the box.

Server information

Jubilant is a high performance, server based, web delivered terminal emulation application optimized for use in cloud, mobile and distributed architectures. The Jubilant Server code was never part of a desktop terminal emulation solution; from its origins it was designed to be a highly efficient multi-threaded server side core service. This means Jubilant can support more concurrent sessions on any given server configuration than any other browser delivered emulation solution. The Jubilant Core server runs as a Windows Service (and Linux, Q3 2026), compatible with Windows Server 2016, 2019, 2022 and 2025, and hydratable in the cloud on Azure, Oracle Cloud, Amazon and Google. The Core architecture was designed to be highly performant, with a minimum specification single server — as specified by the server operating system provider — capable of serving thousands of Jubilant sessions.

Terminal emulation API

You have the option of extending your terminal emulation experience using JavaScript. An API gives you access to screen reads and writes. You can also access the emulation server-side using various Flynet Viewer APIs for .NET, COM/Win32 and JavaScript.

Full function administration application

All host definitions and properties are created and managed with the Administration App. Easy access to the Trace Viewer and the original Screen Recording App is provided with menu options.
  • Configure new host connections and manage existing ones
  • Configure service settings
  • Launch Trace Viewer, Screen Recorder and Screen Recordings Viewer
  • View session status for a configurable range
  • Start and stop sessions
  • View a session in a terminal emulation window, and interact with it

Configuration

Central configuration allows the system administrator to tailor the user environment with keyboard mapping, fonts, user-specific LU or device names, colour and attribute mapping, toolbar functions, customizable session descriptions and more. Text-based configuration files let administrators find and edit entries manually or programmatically. Multiple user configurations provide dynamic device name and logical unit (LU) assignments based on log-in, ensuring users always get the correct display and printer sessions. Jubilant supports completely custom configurations assigned on a group or user basis: the number and types of sessions, and specific device or LU assignments.

Taskbar notification icon and actions

Included with the Emulation Service is an applet that runs in the taskbar notification area. It provides status information on service starts, stops and restarts, along with convenient menu items for launching utilities and for starting, stopping and restarting the service.

Security

Jubilant can be secured to the highest level supported by the host web server environment. Examples including Windows IIS and Apache are generally accepted to be securable to industry standards accepted for banking and defence. This includes the latest level of SSL/TLS up to 1.3 — more commonly 1.2 — and any tertiary add-on or encryption, two-factor authentication, physical tokens or dongles, all of which can be added via our Security API. All Jubilant communications between the server and host are made over a telnet connection secured by an SSL/TLS wrapper. Communications between the application server and the client are primarily conducted using WebSockets, and where this is not supported, HTTPS is used. Jubilant provides multi-factor support, allowing you to integrate your terminal emulation application more seamlessly into your existing or emerging centrally authenticated stack of enterprise applications. Jubilant’s security API provides the capability to integrate with any bespoke or off-the-shelf multi-factor or federated identity environment. Jubilant also makes single sign-on to your mainframe practical, secure and easy to do, using either a secure vault, an encrypted store, or encrypted access to an LDAP source.
  • Secure Sockets Layer encryption (older SSL up to v3.0 and TLS up to v1.3)
  • SSL authentication using digital client certificates, user generated as well as third party — standard authentication technology is built into Jubilant
  • FIPS 140-2 validated cryptographic module
  • NT domain authentication, Active Directory and Azure Directory authentication
  • Federated identity solutions using standards such as OAuth, SAML or OpenID, commonly used for multi-factor authentication
  • Most off-the-shelf and proprietary IAM and SSO solutions, with templates available for integration
