Re: Mainframe Applications Development using a modern GUI
Hi! One of my clients had tried a product from Micro Focus called Mainframe Access but at the end settled on Rational Developer for System z.

Re: IBM announced z10 ..why so fast...any problem on z 9
Hi all! As far as I'm aware of, these are the highlights. As you'll notice, there's nothing wrong with z9, but the z10 Series is more energy efficient with higher capacity and enhancements as you can read below. IBM recently announced the IBM System z10 Enterprise Class mainframe, the cornerstone of the New Enterprise Data Center. The z10 will magnify on demand and always-available capabilities, enabling rapid application deployment and quick return on investment for the client. z10 is 50 percent faster than z9, with 70 percent more capacity. The z10 offers three times the memory of the z9. z10 chip frequency is 2.6 times higher than z9. z10 is equivalent to nearly 1,500 x86 servers, requires 85 percent less space, consumes 85 percent less energy and provides 30 times the capacity. z10 can run 100 percent of utilization rate 100 percent of the time, based on demand. The z10 stack consists of much more than just a server. This stack is built around services, systems management, software and storage. It delivers a complete range of policy-driven functions to our clients including: Authorization Management to authenticate and authorize who can access specific business services and associated IT resources; Utilization Management to drive maximum use of the system. Unlike other classes of servers, z10 is designed to run at 100 percent of utilization 100 percent of the time, based on the varied demands of its users. Just-in-time capacity to deliver additional processing power and capacity when needed; and Virtualization Security to enable clients to allocate resources on demand without fear of security risks. Clients will find the linchpin of the New Enterprise Data Center is Tivoli’s Service Management portfolio, which includes Tivoli’s Service Management Center software. The Service Management Center (ITSMCz) automates the management of complex IT disciplines, including storage, databases and new software deployments. It also addresses business mandates such as reducing IT costs, managing IT operations and regulatory and compliance requirements. Visibility, control and automation are built into the ITSMCz. Visibility – Clients have a single, integrated view of their critical applications on their mainframe, showing the linkages between IT assets and business applications; Control – Clients can customize their view to support such functions as business services, services requests, finance, security, IT production, support and operational control; and Automation – Based on customer needs, ITSMCz combines process automation software such as IBM Tivoli’s Change and Configuration Management Database, Application Dependency Discovery Manager, Business Service Manager and Service Request Manager. IBM’s new version of its DS8000 disk solution, the DS8000 R3.1, has updated business continuity features that make the most of the new mainframe’s power. Clients can address up to four times more information in their mainframe environments with the DS8000 R3.1 than with any other storage system.Also for the System z10, the IBM System Storage TS7700 Virtual Tape solution delivers improved tape processing while supporting business continuity and security through innovative enhancements.
