WEBINAR ENDED

About This Webinar

Many enterprises face a conundrum when it comes to the mainframe. There's pressure to innovate and build new applications while feeling constrained by capacity, performance, and operating budgets. Let's explore how high-performance in-memory processing works with IBM's Tailored Fit Pricing (TFP) model to maximize your Z investment and drive capacity for new workloads. We'll discuss how you can drastically improve the performance of vital mainframe applications while lowering the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) associated with your infrastructure. If Db2 and/or VSAM tables represent significant sources of data within your environment, we will share some tactics you can implement to quickly free up CPU.
