Technologies such as AI, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT), require the right infrastructure to support moving data securely across environments. This means if an enterprise wants to leverage these and other new technologies, it must incorporate strong data management practices to know where data is, and whether it should move into a cloud setting or stay in the mainframe—a task that presents new, unique, challenges.
To stay competitive, organizations that have historically relied on core platforms like IBM® Mainframes and IBM® i for success must integrate them with the cloud to realize a holistic hybrid strategy. But this is easier said than done. In driving effective application and data modernization, CIOs contend with a multitude of challenges that are specific to legacy platforms, including:
- Skill and knowledge gaps across siloed teams
- A web of compliance, security, and performance risks
- The need to innovate and drive business value with data and new technologies
Stagnation is not an option.
