You act like IBM marketing material isn’t true. Prove to me it’s false that 90% 
of credit card transactions don’t process on the mainframe. I’ve provided proof 
it is. You’ve provided nothing to disprove it. It’s not hard to come to the 90% 
conclusion since almost all banks worldwide run on the mainframe. Google it. 
There are dozens of articles that all say the same.

All you've done is re-post IBM marketing material. Have you got anything 
original? For example, show me a customer that is running Node.js in 
production on z/OS?
