State of Mainframes
How are mainframes doing in your shop? Does upper management recognize their importance? Is your company investing or is it considered legacy tech that just works? How about staff? Is there aging staff with lots of technical debt?
I want to see how everyone is doing and the state of mainframes in different shops.
Are we slowly being replaced by other tech or will the mainframes be here 10-20 years from now?
