Room 201C (Anaheim Convention Center)
Speaker: Dave Kreiss (NEON Enterprise Software, Inc.)
In this session, our speaker will present a view of z/OS hardware as if it were all being dissected from the inside out. Do you really know what you are working on when you perform your sysprog or development work? As a mainframer, no matter what your career role, it is important to know what is going on "underneath the skin" as you work. What are the key pieces of hardware that make z/OS so powerful and how do they connect together? How does z/OS hardware function so well? How is z/OS hardware acquired and delivered? How do things execute together in such a seamless environment? Come to this session to find out! Whether you are an experienced mainframer who has seen it all or a zNextGen member, our speaker will show you z/OS hardware like you've never seen before!
