Google on 'Samsung Life Insurance Mainframe' Oracle seems to state savings of $20+ million ANNUALLY. TMaxSoft says $20+ million over 4 years. BEA Systems seems to have started something when they were still on the Mainframe with plans going through 2007 for some of the work.
TMaxSoft appears to have the majority of the links. I wonder just what the application is and it's structure ... Cobol/VSAM/DB2 changed to Oracle? WAS/Java? Were they maxed out on 7,000 MIPS or were they paying for excess capacity?
