Agile practices for z/OS mainframes. A webinar by CloudBees, Micro Focus and IKAN.

CloudBees, Micro Focus and IKAN present their combined solution for mainframe companies who want to move legacy applications onto a modern infrastructure. In other words: how to modernize, not how to rip and replace.

The approach focuses on three key dimensions of modernization – application, process and infrastructure; or put otherwise: the What, the How and the Where of modernization.
