Mainframes are showcasing their longevity and adaptability, becoming crucial in managing the growing demands of web, mobile, and AI-driven applications. Embrace a future where hybrid cloud storage drives innovation, resilience, and strategic growth for your organization.
Ready to Unlock the Power of the Hybrid Cloud for Your Mainframe Data?
Today, enterprises are increasingly adopting hybrid cloud architectures as the default model for their IT infrastructure. This approach combines the benefits of on-premises and cloud environments by leveraging the scalability and flexibility of the cloud while maintaining control over sensitive data and legacy systems. In this hybrid multi-cloud mainframe environment, the mainframe continues to play a vital role: it serves as the backbone of critical business operations, housing valuable data that enterprises rely on.
The Mainframe Misconception
Despite predictions of its obsolescence, the mainframe has not only persisted but evolved, embracing modern workloads from Web and mobile to generative AI. However, a fundamental disconnect remains in how organizations store mainframe data—relying on outdated tape or virtual tape libraries (VTL). This disconnect is a growing problem. Fortunately, with the right technology, organizations can now leverage a bi-directional flow of data so they can get the power of the mainframe with the flexible benefits of the cloud.
Why Tapes and VTLs are No Longer Viable
In an era demanding rapid data access and heightened security, traditional tape and Virtual Tape Libraries (VTLs) fall short. They struggle with slow retrieval times, heightened security risks, and limited scalability, making them ill-suited for the dynamic needs of modern mainframe data storage in web, mobile, and AI-driven applications.
