Editor's Notes
- #4 Use this slide to engage with your customers. Talk about the changing landscape but also ask them questions about the changes they’ve seen in their business. It use to be in order to get an account balance, you had to call or visit someone or wait for you monthly statement. Industires are now taking those same interfaces, web-enabling them and making them more customer facing. Let’s face it, no customer want’s to bring up a 3270 screen (while possible) on their I-Device to check their account balance, they want sharp mobile app or browser-based app for getting this data and they want this data available 24/7 As a result of this transaction are increasing exponentially and these transactions are hitting the mainframe. To provide this 24/7 access to data stored on the mainframe, applications are becoming more and more complex. Application Servers, Webservers, load balancers database servers, Messaging along with the mainframe have all been added to the execution chain. At the same time, the resources that support the mainframe and getting closer and closer to retirement if they have not retired already. The big gigantic vacumn sound you hear decades and decades of expertise exiting the arena. A next generation of mainframe developers have to be brought up to speed quickly and with tools they will A) Use and B) find useful. How are we going to do that?
- #5 Application Understanding Visualize your application portfolio and how it’s utilized Understand application logic, data and relationships Elegant Simplicity in Design and Usability Empower emerging workforce through collaboration and communication Role aware views unify people, platforms, IT and business Intellectual Property Preservation Safeguard back-end processing Optimize business applications Intellectual Property Advancement Enable your mainframe for the digital economy Extend existing business logic to support new projects Cost/Performance Optimization Control execution costs while investing in the future Establish meaningful metrics to measure success
- #21 Our newest and most forward-thinking product is Topaz. Strives to address the changing IT landscape by empowering next-generation IT professionals to discover, visualize and work with both mainframe and non-mainframe data in a common, intuitive manner. And this is just the start. There are more integrations and capabilities that are on the horizon for Topaz.
- #22 Data is data” no matter where it resides in the enterprise. A single data editor for browsing and editing mainframe and non-mainframe data makes the mainframe less intimidating for next-gen developers. Simplifies the incorporation of mainframe data into use-cases for Big Data analytics. Increases application understanding by making highly complex data relationships more understandable through visualization. Simplifies the task of gathering test data from multiple sources. Eliminates the manual and labor intensive process of manually copying data and files from one LPAR to another. Provides easy, on-the-spot access to Compuware’s powerful developer productivity tools – Strobe, File-AID, Abend-AID, Hiperstation and Xpediter Eases the transition into mainframe development for developers who aren’t familiar with the mainframe by leveraging the Eclipse framework – the defacto IDE for Java development. -
