The mainframe hasn\u2019t gone away and won\u2019t anytime soon. In fact, in even some of the most modern customer interactions \u2013 like an app on a smartphone – the data may be coming from the mainframe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, legacy infrastructure can slow down innovation if not handled properly. Mainframe modernization <\/a>is important because it can play an equal role in enterprise IT. And it has evolved over time into what Bloor Research now refers to as Enterprise Server 3.0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this white paper, explore mainframe modernization; the evolution and potential of Enterprise Server 3.0; and what you need to do to make the most out of your mainframe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
