become an Exploiter: recognize that the mainframe isn’t antiquated hardware but instead represents your organization’s specific Intellectual Property—refined over and over again over years and years and specifically tailored to best fit your customers and their needs. In many ways it is the essence of your company’s customer-facing identity. Make the investment necessary to keep your mainframe healthy, vibrant and relevant. Use the wide array of available connectivity choices to develop new services to tap into this reservoir of business differentiators. Leverage the mainframe for what it does best (reliability, availability, security) and continue to differentiate your company with creative strategies to exploit the mainframe.
“The IBM zEnterprise platform offers excellent reliability, availability and performance. We run our IBM zEnterprise servers at up to 90 percent capacity: the system can handle this high demand effortlessly, and offers complete stability even when running demanding workloads.”

"To a large extent, the mainframe’s longevity is a result of two major architectural innovations first introduced with S/360. The first was the notion of a family of computers, from low to high performance, all based on the same instruction set which allowed customers to upgrade to larger systems as well as to future models without having to rewrite their applications. The second was OS/360, a common operating system that supported the various members of the S/360 family except for the smaller ones which ran a subset with more limited capabilities. Today’s z/Architecture and z/OS are direct descendants of the original S/360 and OS/360." --Irving Wladawsky-Berger, Wall Street Journal
