A new report by IT industry analyst Clabby Analytics says that “all of the new improvements that IBM (NYSE: IBM) is making in mainframe management may actually reduce the number of people needed to manage mainframes in the future as well as reduce the skills needed to manage mainframe environments.†The Clabby report indicates that the mainframe’s ability to run Linux and Java workloads will “play a vital role in ensuring the mainframe’s longevity.â€Â
Clabby concludes that “the mainframe serves a unique role in the enterprise as a centralized, secure database hub, as a powerful transaction engine, and as a host of mission-critical business logic. IT executives know this  and maybe this is why the mainframe market grew 8% last year.â€Â
