When somebody says the mainframe is dying, I like to say 95% of the
Fortune 500 run on a IBM mainframe. And their applications
absolutely, positively, cannot run on open systems, because they
require a much higher transaction rate than what open systems can run.

I used to teach an (in-house) Intro to Mainframes class. I used that

size of files maintained for and processed on mainframes is [still]
very large in relation to those maintained in other, non-mainframe
formats for processing elsewhere.
Any such ann
