Chicago, IL – March 15, 2010 – Clerity Solutions, a full-service provider of mainframe migration, modernization, and optimization solutions, will present during a session on enterprise Linux servers at the Novell BrainShare conference in Salt Lake City on March 22.
Florian Delonge, EMEA business development director for Clerity, will join executives from Deutsche Rentenversicherung (DRV), the agency responsible for administering the pensions of all private and publically employed citizens in Germany in a session entitled
German Pension Fund Goes Linux: Legacy Application Migration to z/Linux with Minimal Risk.
The session, on Monday at 11:30 am, will discuss how several divisions of the DRV are migrating a mainframe z/OS-based CICS COBOL workload to SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for System z and Clerity’s UniKix mainframe rehosting technology to reduce software costs and consolidate operations on a modern, flexible environment.
UniKix mainframe rehosting software enables organizations to reduce annual operating costs by as much as 70 percent by providing a mission-critical environment for deploying mainframe CICS, IMS, IDMS, Adabas, Natural, and other legacy assets on agile, cost-effective open systems. By leveraging existing applications, skill sets, and data investments, Clerity technology and migration services optimize legacy investments without sacrificing current functionality or introducing risk into the migration process. These features make UniKix software suitable for organizations looking to offload mainframe MIPS compute cycles to improve economies of scale and avoid costly upgrades, or for businesses that want to completely replace mainframe systems as part of strategic modernization initiatives.
