WHY MIGRATE FROM THE MAINFRAME?

The Honest Case: Strengths & Migration Drivers

Mainframes still excel at certain workloads, yet strong economic and technical drivers push migration.

✓ Mainframes Still Excel At

  • Ultra-high transaction reliability
  • Very high availability
  • Integrated security
  • Mature operational stability
  • Extreme I/O throughput
  • Large-scale batch processing
  • Predictable latency
  • Proven mission-critical workloads

CURRICULUM OVERVIEW

What You'll Cover: Day by Day

  1. PRE-WORK (OPTIONAL) · 8 HOURS · 2 WEEKS PRIOR REQUIRED

    Client Modernization Use Case

    Identify your legacy system and migration target before Day 1. Completing this pre-work ensures the bootcamp focuses on your real environment, maximizing hands-on relevance.

  2. DAY 1 AM · STRATEGIC FOUNDATION

    Pillars for Modernization Success

    Establish the business case and organizational foundation:

    • ROI-based value objective: how to frame and measure success
    • Migration boundaries: what moves, what stays, what transforms
    • Change management: bringing the existing team along on the journey
  3. DAY 1 PM · TECHNICAL DEEP DIVE & LAB PREP

    Technical Pillars & AI-Enabled Engineering Patterns

    Deep dive into the technical side of modernization:

    • Legacy system knowledge: understanding what you're migrating from
    • Target environment: design patterns for the destination architecture
    • AI-enabled engineering patterns: techniques that accelerate the migration process
  4. DAY 2 · HANDS-ON MODERNIZATION LAB

    Execute a Real Modernization Use Case with AI Tooling

    Apply everything from Day 1 in a live lab environment. Participants execute a client-specific or general modernization use case using AI tooling, and leave with a working artefact and an actionable plan.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

What You'll Walk Away With

By end of Day 2, every participant can:

  • Define a clear ROI-based value objective and migration boundary.
  • Apply the six pillars of modernization success.
  • Use AI-enabled engineering techniques.
  • Execute a hands-on migration against a real or realistic legacy use case.
  • Return with a modernization plan your organization can act on immediately.
