A SUCCESSION STRATEGY FOR MAINFRAME MANAGEMENT
How will you cope with the approaching shortage of mainframe expertise?
It's no surprise to mainframe proponents that--more than 40 years after their introduction--the systems remain an indispensable resource for big business.
But, as experts at Arizona State University's W.P.Carey School of Business put it, the mainframe market has "faked out the job market."
TechWeb's W. David Gardner recently wrote "A crisis is looming for IBM's mainframe computing environment : The mainframe community is beginning to run out of people to run the machines."
According to META Group, considerably more than half of the mainframe professionals at work today are over age 50. Darwin Magazine recently reported that mainframe expertise is already scarce, and the talent that is available is overworked.
Shouldn't your organization have a succession plan in place to ensure that your mainframe systems remain effective, efficient and reliable? We believe the coming shortage of mainframe expertise will be best weathered by organizations that have sophisticated, easy-to-use, automated capacity management solutions.
