Challenge of Mainframe
- Lack of Technical Expertise
- High maintenance cost- Hardware and licencing cost - Poor GUI and lack of ease of connectivity with mobile application - Performance deterioration with mobile/web transaction - No way to monitor actual mainframe performance having mobile adoption
Why Mainframe Modernization
- To add Analytics facility to use potentioal of data : Mainframe flat file based DB did not support Analytics . New DBs like MangoDB, NOSQL repacing old IMS , - To enable Mobile transaction on Mainframe backend application. - To accelerate Release management ,Leverage DevOPs and continuose development - To leverage cloud computing AS a service model - Automation Leverage
What we can do - Bridging between Application on cloud and core Mainframe business services - Develop modernization grp to help enterprises modernize their mainframe via 5R model (re-host /Retain Replace/Reinvasion and retire) - Analysis mainframe logs (SMF understand consumptipon pattern and MIPS usage to reduce cost and improve performace. Benefit of Modernization - Reduce total cost of ownership of Mainframe application - Flexibility – Cloud offers high productivity and innovation support increase scalability - Technical Pool of open source
- Mainframe Modernization can support
- Migration from mainframe - Hybrid cloud application inytegrated with core mainframe business services
- Reusability – Lift and shift process that support existing code in COBOL and recompile it on mainframe emulator hosted on cloud. This reduce risk , hardware /software cost and quick to implement. - Replace – Exisitng application to SAAS ( software as service Application in Cloud - Rewrite – First migrate code on mainframe emulator then DB and then
- Microsoft Azure referenced architecture really helps for mainframe modernization and support mainframe parallel operation , Load balancing ,Monitoring management and security by different Azure tools., -
