Perhaps your memory is fading? The mainframe is still by far the most secure, which is why companies needing the best security still use it. Also, it can process a trillion web transactions per day and that was in 2019. A huge chunk of Fortune 500 companies use mainframe systems, at least 71%. Credit transactions heavily rely on sophisticated mainframe systems. Globally 90% of credit card transactions happen on mainframe systems. Worldwide, mainframe systems handle 68% of information technology workloads. The “mainframe is dying” crowd has been wrong for 30 years. And will be wrong for another 30.
