Do Any of These Sound Familiar?
We are trying to get new
developers to learn 3270 “green

It takes 8-12 weeks to make
basic maintenance changes on
the mainframe
We track the dependencies of 100+
applications, test scripts, test data sets
and their interactions between
mainframe and distributed on Excel
We are looking to automate our release
processes and save configurations for
future use, it’s available in distributed
