Mainframes are firmly back on the enterprise IT wish list. By consolidating all your server needs onto a single high performance platform, a mainframe environment can increase shareholder value, lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), improve service delivery and strengthen data security – as long as it is well-managed.
The traditional mainframe outsourcing argument is compelling: reduced operating costs, guaranteed availability, improved reliability and better security. But nowadays CIOs want more. Faced with a mainframe skills shortage and a competitive, fickle marketplace, they are looking for instant access to high level talent, extra processing power on demand and the highest possible Return on Investment (ROI).
A long history of designing, managing and supporting mainframe environments for the world’s most complex organisations has made CSC a leader in innovative mainframe solutions. Our expertise as been utilised by some of the world’s largest commercial and government organisations, who value CSC’s mainframe talent pool, end to end service, economies of scale and business-driven innovation.
Locally, our track record includes multiple success stories, including large scale migrations from other continents to CSC’s Australian Mainframe Centre of Excellence . This state of the art data centre hosts over 10,000 MIPS of mainframe processing on a standardised operating environment to optimise hardware and software management, reducing running costs by 20% or more.
