Overall Satisfaction with IBM Z

The IBM z/OS is being intensively used to run batch processes of enterprise-level applications for various in-house projects. We actively make use of a whole array of IBM z/OS middleware services ranging from DB2 relational database management systems to the CICS transaction processing servers. Additionally, various other suites of technology are interfaced with the z/OS for additional services access.
  • Batch processing.
  • Server reliability.
  • Legacy interface can be a bit hard to get around in the beginning.
  • Difficult to replicate work environment at home for practice.
  • Great return on investment.
  • Stable and reliable computing platform.
There is no alternative to IBM Z available in the market when it comes to large volume server processing.
For online processing like credit card transactions, it is the powerhouse of the world economy.
Other use case scenarios include using it as a relational database management system at the back end for companies like retail stores, insurance, and big volume financial banks.
