Incorporating Your Mainframe into Your Modernization Strategycloud

Despite being a crucial IT resource, mainframes are often misperceived. This new Gartner® report explains how to move workloads, address mainframe personnel needs, and use mainframes to gain a competitive edge.

 

MWGrid offers a structured approach to determining the placement of applications and workloads, and helps you determine the best time to modernize them for the mainframe, integrate them into a combination of mainframe and public cloud, or transition them away from the mainframe.

We can create a customized strategy centered around your applications and data, and provide support throughout your modernization or transformation process, no matter your current situation.

 

Upgrading Your Mainframe System

According to recent research from Gartner, analysts suggest that infrastructure and operations leaders should optimize the mainframe by conducting a thorough analysis of its workload, utilizing a workload strategy based on the 5 R's (re-platform, refactor, rearchitect, rebuild, and replace), and effectively addressing personnel needs for mainframe operations.

Linking applications and data with public cloud services enhances the openness of the mainframe and leads to a smoother transition into a hybrid cloud environment.

MWGrid's strengthened partnership with Microsoft enables our teams to establish data connections between the mainframe and Microsoft's cloud, simplifying the process for customers to uncover new opportunities and extract value from their entire data center.
