Accelerate large-scale modernization of .NET, mainframe, and VMware workloads using HAQM Q Developer
Software runs the world – not just the new software applications built in modern languages and deployed on the most optimized cloud infrastructure, but also legacy software built over years and barely understood by the teams that inherit them. These legacy applications may have snowballed into monolithic blocks or may be fragmented across siloed on-premises […]

Automate thousands of mainframe tests on AWS with the Micro Focus Enterprise Suite
We have seen mainframe customers often encounter scalability constraints, and they can’t support their development and test workforce to the scale required to support business requirements. These constraints can lead to delays, reduce product or feature releases, and make them unable to respond to market requirements. Furthermore, limits in capacity and scale often affect the quality of changes deployed, and are linked to unplanned or unexpected downtime in products or services.
The conventional approach to address these constraints is to scale up, meaning to increase MIPS/MSU capacity of the mainframe hardware available for development and testing. The cost of this approach, however, is excessively high, and to ensure time to market, you may reject this approach at the expense of quality and functionality. If you’re wrestling with these challenges, this post is written specifically for you.
