Seventy-nine percent of IT organizations believe the mainframe is an essential component of their cloud computing strategy, a survey has found.
In addition, 74 percent of respondents believe that the mainframe will have a role in any cloud computing initiative, and 70 percent agreed that cloud computing will sustain or extend the mainframe environment.
As the mainframe takes center stage in cloud computing environments, organizations will increasingly rely on mainframe management solutions.
Eighty-two percent of respondents reported that they intend to use the mainframe in the future either as much or more than today.
The most pressing issues facing European organizations in the next 12 months is an increased demand for training (cited by 54 percent of respondents).
Comment from Dayton Semerjian, general manager, mainframe, CA Technologies: This survey provides indisputable evidence of the mainframe's agility to perform in new IT models such as cloud computing, and on-going durability as a critical data center platform for decades to come. Ongoing, practical innovation will be required to ensure that the mainframe can always be an effective and integral part of an evolving IT infrastructure.
About the survey: More than 300 IT decision makers in ten countries responded to the CA Technologies commissioned survey, "Mainframe - The Ultimate Cloud Platform?"
