What are MQ calls?

MQCONN, MQCONNX, and MQDISC. Use these calls to connect a program to (with or without options), and disconnect a program from, a queue manager. If you write CICS® programs for z/OS®, you do not need to use these calls. However, you are recommended to use them if you want to port your application to other platforms.

How MQ is used in mainframe?
