Re: Hi there.
Hi yuvaraj43 and welcome to the Forums,
Suggest you look some of the discussion from the internet:
http://www.techrepublic.com/article/the ... cloud-era/
http://www.wired.com/2015/01/z13-mainframe/
http://www.pcworld.com/article/249951/i ... today.html
and you'll know it's evolving but there are other platforms as well which are evolving and perhaps that's the reason that sound of its progress is not that loud as it used be in 80s-90s.
So to answer your question, as Enrico would say that it's a yes/no question, my answer is No - no I don't think the way you said it!

Re: Hi there.
NOI find this area is not evolving now. Do you all also think this way?
it seems so ...
nowadays talking about MAINFRAMES is not politically correct.
but bashing MAINFRAMES and using LEGACY adjective, without knowinga sh**, is ( politically correct )
there are too many idiots that confuse hardware and software
and the "what is" with "what it does"
as I asked already,
would You consider a MAINFRAME running zVM with 3000 thousands zLinux images a mainframe or a server ?
even Your home pc if configured with a FTP server would it be a PC or a server
a MAINFRAME or a PC ==> what it is
server == what it does
just another example ...
what would You call a Mainframe running
8 DB2 instances
8 Websphere instances
20 CICS instances
...
...
but better stop the discussion here, there are too many terminology wars/flames already active
cheers

Re: Hi there.
Look at the announcements for the z13 and z13s machines. IBM is taking system z into cloud computing, and grid computing, and Linux, and KVM (Kernel Virtual Machine) and .... Hardware crypto, plus scalability, plus reliability -- the system z platform continues to evolve rapidly. If your site isn't upgrading, then yeah you're not evolving but that's not the marketplace.
