Re: Fwd: 3 aging IT specialties that just won't retire
Timely this quarter's ezine from Long Pela ventures some thoughtful opinions on Exits http://longpelaexpertise.com.au/ezine/current.php LongEx Mainframe Quarterly - Nov 2018 A Fresh Look at Exits Not the normal exits you think of when there's a fire in the building. In z/OS terms, an Exit is a hook we can use to insert our own code into the normal processing of z/OS and other systems. This month, we're taking a look at these Exits.
