I was looking for a bit more details on which box(es) they were running.
My shop has decided to migrate most of our applications off of
CICS/DB2/IDMS on z/OS.
They want to go Linux on Intel running J2EE (Websphere for now) for
online and trying to keep Cobol for batch with DB2 with the possibility
of replacing DB2 to Oracle) as the DBMS. The applications we are
migrating account for about 85-90% of our CPU usage.
Our director point to this as "see it's possible to migrate a large
scale applications off of a IBM mainframe and save money."
We are running a 1C7 and 1C3 now and will be upgrading to 304/303 in the
next two weeks. In the new world they plan on use blade servers. Two
four ways as DB servers and 8 two-ways for application servers (4 for
Webshpere and four for batch jobs).
