Stream: Open Mainframe Project
Time: 11:15 - 12:00
If you deploy and maintain applications with the efficiency that DevOps offers, you need to make mainframes and open source part of your workflow. The open source movement has rapidly become the way code is being developed for today's smart and agile businesses. This session will cover how an “open mainframe” is the perfect solution for deploying open source on an enterprise computing platform.
Open Mainframe Project is home to 18 open source initiatives like Zowe, Galasa, COBOL Check and working groups for Mainframe Modernization and Linux Distributions that aim to help overcome the the barriers between mainframes and other infrastructure to make DevOps easier and more efficient. This session will offer a quick glimpse of the challenges each project solves and how to get involved.
