Reduce mainframe COBOL workload with JOPAZ

Reduce COBOL workloads on the general processor by up to 80%

JOPAZ reclaims mainframe capacity by compiling COBOL source code into Java bytecode to redistribute high-utilization workloads to the zIIP processor, increasing efficiency, improving performance, and creating space for strategic projects—all without changing a line of code. 

In this short demo, you’ll see the same COBOL program run side by side before and after JOPAZ. The comparison highlights how JOPAZ reduces General Processor utilization by compiling COBOL workloads to Java bytecode and executing them on zIIP, creating additional capacity for new and growing workloads on the mainframe. Discover how efficiently JOPAZ enables better use of existing IBM Z processing resources without disruption.
