Join ATERAS and CIBER for a Legacy Modernization Webinar
The decisions you make today couldn’t be more crucial. Not only are you challenged to cut costs and operate efficiently, you have to be equipped to get enhancements to market quickly. Legacy environments simply can’t handle the real-time business needs of today without challenges and work-arounds. The licensing cost for all the software required to run a mainframe are through the roof and only increasing. Legacy resources are retiring and you won’t be seeing any COBOL, CICS or DB2 Programmers in this year’s graduating class. Legacy transformation requires automation. It simply takes too long to rewrite millions of lines of old legacy code.
