Hi,
I have been asked by my management as well as a couple of clients to try to predict the future of the mainframe. Although I have done some research and have talked to many client companies, I thought I would ask a very open ended question to this list since it is you who have your fingers on the true pulse. I also have enjoyed your many and varied responses to questions over the years and feel that this exercise may be informative as well as entertaining. So here goes: What is the future of the mainframe? Thanks in advance for your service. Depending on the results, I may compile your answers into a whitepaper and present it sometime.
