CONNECT MAINFRAMES WITH THE CLOUD OF YOUR CHOICE:

The cloud offers innovations for the future, but your mainframe will remain your reliable system of record. The key to taking advantage of new cloud-based services and data analytics is to synchronize or integrate your mainframe data to the cloud without compromising the uptime and performance of your source system.

By integrating your mainframe data with the cloud, you can:

• Transform data from ADABAS, Db2®, flat files, IMS™, QSAM and VSAM™ into standard SQL for rapid integration
• Leverage the latest in cloud analytics, data lakes, search and artificial intelligence
• Maintain a hybrid environment
• Ensure your data in the cloud is reliable and up to date

MODERNIZE YOUR AGENCY’S MAINFRAME USER EXPERIENCE:

Make a better connection with your users by improving their productivity. Don’t just eliminate green screens, create a better user experience (UX) by improving processes with redesigned workflows, intuitive web interfaces and modern apps.

With a modern UX for your mainframe, you can:

• Improve the productivity of your users
• Eliminate tedious, redundant tasks
• Provide better service to your citizens
