The Modern Mainframe (DE)

The Modern Mainframe: Unlocking Potential Rather Than Just Modernizing
Everyone is talking about “Mainframe modernization.” Here at the European Mainframe Academy, we take it a step further: We are convinced that the Mainframe does not need to be modernized. The Mainframe is modern. Projects often fail because modernization is limited to the application level. Yet the key to true efficiency also lies in modernizing the system itself.
Together with experts from SQ Solutions, Living Mainframe, CROZ, InfoDesign, IBM, and EMA, as well as representatives from client companies, we take a comprehensive look at Mainframe modernization —from architectural and system considerations to modern application development, DevOps, and AI scenarios.
In our three-day intensive seminar, we’ll show you how to tap into hidden potential and reduce operating costs in the long term.
