I was just going to point that out, but you beat me to it. I'll add that it's
nice working for a company that appreciates the role of the mainframe in modern
IT.

Not bad.
Google, Facebook, and Twitter own giant data centers all over the
planet, and they are built with racks of commodity hardware. If
thousands upon thousands of small servers networked together are good
enough for Google, Facebook, and Twitter, then shouldn’t they be good
enough for you? Perhaps you remember IBM’s famous commercial “The
servers, they stole all our servers!“. Consolidating all of that
complexity into a mainframe might be just what you need. Let’s take a
look at what the mainframe really is, and consider its use cases.
