Hi All

Recent Days We have been hearing many myths that were against Mainframes. I have found a nice article that gives a sound voice for Mainframes.  Please go through the same.

  1. Mainframes are old
  2. Mainframes don’t run modern applications
  3. Mainframes are expensive
  4. The skills to manage mainframes are not available or you need more people
