Are you a IBM JES3 shop and considering an upgrade to z/OS 3.1? JES3plus is the only alternative available to remain on the JES3 technology and avoid a costly JES2 conversion. Since its initial release in April 2020, JES3plus has been steadily enhanced to provide superior I/O performance characteristics and many functional enhancements.
The presenter will walk you through the progression of the enhancements to JES3plus, how the JES3plus Client Advisory Council (JCAC) contributes, what a trivial migration looks like, and share some customer success stories.
