Most enterprises with mainframes are examining their environments in response to various business challenges. Many have adopted a “right application on the right platform” model. Every platform has capabilities and attributes that make them “best for purpose” for some applications. Digital transformation is difficult, and the risk of failure is very high because it involves much more than just the technology. In nearly all cases, work processes and even the culture in the business must change. The IBM Z and IBM i platforms retain their premier position as proven and reliable hosting options for many mission critical applications and workloads, and are at the core of a successful cloud transformation journey. Mainframes support the same open tools and languages other platforms can as well as traditional native tools that have made mainframes the backbone of the world’s economy. IBM Z and IBM i can be integrated using industry standard DevOps processes. When combined with other platforms, IBM Z and IBM i are often the right platforms for these applications as part of a robust hybrid cloud strategy typically at a lower cost, with less complexity and a smaller carbon footprint.
