Speaker: Jay Lipovich(BMC Software)

You’re probably asking yourself, “What does all of this have to do with a mainframe?” The short answer is – it has a lot to do with a mainframe. As we charge forward toward our relentless rush to digital business, we are creating new challenges for a mainframe. These new digital business challenges require mainframe environments to be always-on, always-available and cost effective. There is no “easy button” when it comes to running always-on, always-available services to deliver unpredictable transaction activity, wildly changing volumes, and heightened performance expectations to respond to these new technology-savvy consumers – who never sleep and have 24x7 access in the palm of their hands from any-place and anywhere.
Join us for lunch and bring your stories of digital engagement to share with others and we will tell you how the iWatch, coffee, and plane tickets are all involved with a mainframe.
