Presentation

One of the most significant challenges in adopting new technologies and techniques is ensuring the proper installation and configuration of the necessary software in the appropriate locations. Technologies such as Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift facilitate the deployment of applications by developers, but challenges persist in networking and making the applications accessible to the broader organisation. In this presentation, we will demonstrate how to deploy an API developed using z/OS Connect and subsequently integrate it into the hybrid cloud environment utilising Hybrid Cloud Mesh.
