1 Success Paths for Integrating CICS with New Technologies Don Spoerke Senior Systems Engineer GT Software

2 CICS Backbone System for many fortune 100 companies 40+ years of dependable, reliable, scalable systems How many 9 s reliability? Online and Batch Processing Turbo Charge them, do not rewrite them! But

3 The Mainframe is not Agile The mainframe is not agile 27% feel constrained by legacy applications Bright Spots 75% feel Agile IT could save 30% 45% feel need to modernize But.. 80% don t have a roadmap for modernization

4 Mainframe is still Relevant! 95 of top 100 banks run System z 60% of all online data on a mainframe 60 of top 100 System z customers also run Linux on the platform Majority of Fortune 1000 run a mainframe as part of their IT infrastructure System z holds the highest security classification Only platform with EAL5 security classification In 2011 more than 1500 apps were added or upgraded on System z from over 100 ISVs

5 Polling Questions Do you have projects that will involve CICS and new technologies(mobile/cloud)? Do you have projects that require data from CICS for use in mobile/cloud applications?
