# New Products

This release introduces three brand-new Natural products that will transform how you develop, integrate, and innovate with Natural.

## Natural API Server

**Turn trusted Natural business logic into modern REST APIs.**

Natural API Server enables organizations to expose existing Natural subprograms as secure, OpenAPI-standard REST APIs without rewriting applications or undertaking complex integration projects. With full support for JSON payloads, HTTP headers, and status codes, Natural applications can participate seamlessly in cloud, mobile, analytics, and AI-driven architectures. By transforming proven business logic into reusable services, Natural API Server helps organizations open new channels and accelerate digital initiatives in days rather than months.

## Natural for Visual Studio Code

**A modern developer experience for the next generation of Natural development.**

Natural for Visual Studio Code brings comprehensive Natural language support to the world’s most popular development environment. Developers benefit from familiar capabilities such as syntax highlighting, code completion, navigation, and debugging while continuing to use the VS Code extensions, keyboard shortcuts, and Git workflows they already know. Supporting Natural development across z/OS, Linux, and cloud environments, this new IDE helps reduce onboarding time, simplify hiring, and enable teams to deliver applications faster.

## Natural Messaging

**Connect Natural applications to the enterprise event flow.**

Natural Messaging introduces native IBM MQ integration for Natural applications on z/OS, allowing business events and data to move reliably between mainframe and distributed systems in real time. By eliminating the need for custom integration code, organizations can simplify event-driven architectures while extending the reach of their mission-critical applications. The result is faster connectivity, improved interoperability, and a more agile foundation for enterprise modernization initiatives.
