Reuses existing COBOL and PL/I code that defines your online and batch processes—so applications behave in the same way they did on the mainframe.
Reduce the learning curve and effort by using existing mainframe security models for application authentication and authorization.
Delivers equivalent and better quality of service levels at a lower cost while reducing operational costs by as much as 90%.
This high performance and scalable deployment environment enables your mainframe applications to meet and exceed the Reliability, Availability and Serviceability (RAS) expectations of your business.
Adopt a fit-for-purpose application deployment model that is flexible and supports all key platforms.
Provides an easy and low risk capability to support the rehosting of mainframe COBOL and PL/I application workload.
Lowers the business risk of rehost projects as more data can be moved without application change.
Supporting application deployment to key environments, including Linux (Intel, IBM, LinuxONE, IBM Power), Windows, UNIX, and the public and private cloud, Enterprise Server enables mainframe applications to run with minimal change in your chosen environment. Move or replicate existing mainframe workload to new platforms for rapid expansion to new markets or geographies.
Dramatically reduce batch cycle execution times by taking advantage of modern, distributed and lower cost processors.
Deploying mainframe application workload to new platforms requires flexible and comprehensive security to guard against threats and to protect valuable applications and data. Enterprise Server delivers support for a RACF comparable security capability, to enable the reuse of existing mainframe security rules for authentication and application level authorization. In addition, you can utilize long user names and passwords as well as Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to further enhance your security strategy.
IT organizations can innovate faster by reinvesting existing IT budget into new initiatives and rapidly deploying core business workload to new environments to meet new business requirements.
Deploying IBM mainframe application workload to Enterprise Server has enabled some organizations to slash ongoing IT operational costs by up to 90%. Additionally, planned mainframe upgrades can be deferred or cancelled by leveraging the flexible, lower-cost Enterprise Server solution.
