Why the mainframe? Availability.<br />

● Extremely high availability - "five nines", 99.999%, with Parallel<br />

Sysplex. Our S/390, zSeries, and System z experience for over<br />

a decade has been 100% scheduled mainframe availability.<br />

● World renowned security and cryptography, including RACF (or<br />

other z/OS ESM) and ICSF for z/OS key management facility<br />

and crypto API set.<br />

● Very fast, sub-second response time, high transaction volumes,<br />

even from the web!<br />

● Think modern, innovative, scalable, resilient, comprehensive,<br />

flexible, secure, community (SHARE ;-), value, integration, very<br />

capable, etc.<br />

● A very robust and viable component <strong>of</strong> today's IT infrastructure.<br />
