Open Mainframe Project’s Zowe, the integrated and extensible open source framework for z/O, continues to be a popular tool for mainframe modernization. It offers modern interfaces to interact with z/OS, as delivered or through plug-ins and extensions, similar to what you may experience on cloud platforms today. According to the 2024 Arcati Mainframe Report, which surveys mainframe organizations to see what technologies are being used,  89% of respondents indicated that Zowe was either running now or soon will be by the end of the year. 

Join us for an engaging roundtable bringing together industry leaders and experts in enterprise solutions, DevOps and security. Our panel of experts will share their insights and customer experiences, providing a unique opportunity to learn from those at the forefront of this modern framework. 

Attendees will learn: 

  • What Zowe is and what it can do for you
  • Features of the new Zowe Long-term Support V3
  • Details about extensions, apps and the Zowe Conformance and Zowe Conformant Support Provider Programs
  • Real-world customer experiences
