TSO/MON development/support, he was Director of Analytic Systems (MICS).
Anyway, I was there at work early one morning weekday and he happened to be

Well, I know a banking company which moves off mainframe.

They even claimed success, but... But still all the processing is being

Yeah, that "savings" seems unlikely given cost of cloud usage. But as
