Hello,
We run z/OS 1.8 but no Oracle on the mainframe. We have some Unix machines running Oracle apps. We are considering exploring utilizing Oracle on the mainframe and moving some Oracle apps off the Unix machines to the mainframe with the intent of saving on the Oracle licenses, among other things.
Has anyone gone this route? Moving Oracle apps off Unix machines and onto the mainframe?
If so, did you save money? Improve service?
Any problems doing this?
Any expenses that make this not feasible?
Is anyone aware of any books or documentation that gives information on doing this?
Thanks to everyone in advance.
Kurt
There are a number of shops that have done this and are very happy. This question is
best asked on the linux-390 list.
For info on the how-to's check the VM web site http://www.vm.ibm.com (they'll have
pointers to info and redbooks), or search the Redbooks site.
