Astadia Releases Reference Architectures for Migrating Unisys and IBM Mainframe Workloads to Microsoft Azure

The content below is taken from the original (Astadia Releases Reference Architectures for Migrating Unisys and IBM Mainframe Workloads to Microsoft Azure), to continue reading please visit the site. Remember to respect the Author & Copyright.

Astadia

,
the premier technology consultancy focused on modernizing mainframe
workloads, today announced the release of two separate reference
architectures for moving Unisys and IBM mainframe workloads to Microsoft
Azure’s public cloud computing infrastructure. Astadia has moved
mainframe workloads to distributed environments for more than 25 years
and have applied that expertise to architecting the solution for
customers adopting Azure.

Mainframes
still run significant workloads on behalf of commercial and public
sector organizations; yet the cost of maintaining these platforms
increases annually while the availability of skilled workers rapidly
declines. Azure is now ready to support these workloads with security,
performance and reliability, fueling new digital transformation and
innovation.

“For
decades, mainframes have traditionally housed the most mission critical
applications for an organization,” said Scott Silk, Astadia Chairman
and CEO. “Microsoft Azure is ready to take on these workloads and
Astadia is ready to help organizations make the move with a low-cost,
low-risk approach, and then provide ongoing services to manage the
resulting environment.”

“Astadia
has been a trusted Microsoft platform modernization partner for years,”
said Bob Ellsworth, Microsoft’s Director of Enterprise Modernization
and Azure HiPo Partners. “Astadia is a proven mainframe applications and
database consultancy and their focus on Azure will benefit numerous
enterprise companies.”

Astadia’s Mainframe to Azure Reference Architectures Built on Decades of Experience

Astadia
has completed over 200 successful platform modernization projects and
has a proven methodology, best practices and proprietary tools for
discovery, planning, implementation and on-going management and support.
The Mainframe to Cloud Reference Architectures cover the following
topics:

  • Drivers and challenges associated with modernizing mainframe workloads
  • A primer on the specific mainframe architectures
  • A primer on the Microsoft Azure architecture
  • Detailed Reference Architecture diagrams and accompanying narrative

Availability

The Unisys to Microsoft Azure Reference Architecture is available for free download at http://bit.ly/2u5zz2K

The IBM Mainframe to Microsoft Azure Reference Architecture is available for free download at http://bit.ly/2v487zt
