Mainframe
The client/server bandwagon that swept through the IT world in the late 1980s and early 1990s coupled with
Y2K threatened the existence of the mainframe. But organizations quickly learned that the scalability,
performance, and reliability of large-scale mainframes is hard to duplicate. According to a July 1998 article
in Information Week, more than 75% of internal data accessed by corporate PC users is stored on mainframes;
more than 60% of all data available over the web originates from mainframe databases; and in 1997, 83% of all
commercial transactions were processed by mainframes. The mainframe is a robust, reliable, and heavily utilized
platform.
Mainframes used to be defined by their size, and they can still fill a room, cost millions, and support
thousands of users. But now a mainframe can also run on a laptop and support two users. Whether your company
needs Application or Systems level Mainframe Consultants, Celeris has the experience to quickly meet your
Mainframe resource needs.
