Nowadays, most enterprises with mainframes are evaluating their environments in response to evolving business challenges. In fact, many have adopted a “right application on the right platform” model. Each platform has capabilities and attributes that make it “best for purpose” for certain applications.

Mainframes are modern and support both open tools and languages alongside traditional native tools that have made them the backbone of the world’s economy. IBM Z or IBM i are often the right platforms for many applications as part of a robust, integrated hybrid cloud strategy.
