One of the biggest signs that #IT is rapidly expanding beyond the data center is the rise of #edge #computing, a distributed computing model that places functions such as computation, data analysis and storage closer to the sources of the data. With edge technology, users are likely to be physically closer to servers than if all servers were in one place such as a data center. This can help make applications run faster and speed up access for users by reducing the latency compared with applications run on servers in a data center. #edge #cloud #IoT

One area that is attracting increasing interest is "moving applications ON the IBM #Mainframe." Some migration solutions, including Heirloom® h/GENAI™, can migrate workloads to Java stacks ON the mainframe (under z/Linux, USS, zCX). This gives you the agility of a modern app stack on the best hardware. #replatformRefactorReimagine #realCustomersRealResults #exitTheDataCenter #agilityMatters #humbleBrag #mainframeMigration #mainframeModernization #COBOL #PL1 #cloudAgnostic #multiCloud #cloudNative #GenAI Heirloom Computing Kyndryl ISG (Information Services Group)
