In this session, we will describe how an incorrect assessment of hardware and software costs, migration costs, replacement application development costs, dual operations costs, and more, can all lead to situations where a rehosting effort can go awry. Additionally, not accounting for all the reasons why "deconsolidation" of servers occurs can result in significant cost increases. Thus, it’s crucial to understand the reality and true costs of rehosting workloads off the mainframe.
