    In previous blogs I introduced the IBM Digital Transformation Model for IBM Z , described how to optimize your software for the latest hardware, how to drive more effective maintenance of your software  and effective practices for API-enabling your mainframe software. In this blog, I will discuss how to further accelerate the speed of innovation of your mainframe software. In the Survey we are doing for the Digital Transformation Model, the most common concern raised by Lines of Business people is lack of speed and long... [More]

    The IBM Digital Transformation Model for IBM Z   provides you with a framework for how to get the most out of your mainframe applications in context of a Digital Transformation. More than 80% of the world’s structured enterprise data resides on the mainframe[1], over 220 Billion lines of COBOL code captures core business processes and more than 55% of all enterprise application transactions run on the mainframe[2]. A key part of your digital transformation hence needs to focus on opening up the mainframe to applications outside the... [More]

    In my previous blogs, I provided an overview of the IBM Digital Transformation Model   as well as best practices for effectively maintaining applications, that is, to effectively operate at  level 2 . But what does it take to operate at level 1? Level 1 is for applications that are not actively maintained. You may not have touched the application the last 10 years, and you do not expect to do much to it over the next 10 years either. At first glimpse, you might say that since you do not invest in maintenance, there is... [More]

    In my last blog  Accelerating Your Digital Transformation  I described that if you characterize enterprise applications into a set of levels 1-4, we have found that you can have much more productive discussions around what capabilities an organization should prioritize for adoption. In today’s blog I will describe level 2 <I will describe level 1 in a later blog>. OK, so you have a level 2 application. You are doing ongoing maintenance, but the application does not contain critical data and processes that... [More]
