Jes stands for Job entry subsystem.

it does 2 major things
------------------------------
1. manages batch jobs.
2. Routes output to the terminal nodes.

difference between the two

Jes2 is a De-centralized network.
Jes3 is Centralized.

In a centralised system, a group of computers are assigned jobs through a central computer.
In a decentralised system, each computer acts independently in its selection of jobs.

Also Note that, between Jes2 and Jes3 there is NO advantage of one over the other

JES (Job Entry Subsystem) manages the jobs and resources. JES receives jobs into the system, schedules them for processing by z/os and controls their output processing.
