Mainframe Modernization With AveriSource at SHARE Kansas City 2024

Introduction

For over 60 years, SHARE has been a legendary IT institution, bringing together the industry’s most influential thought leaders and subject matter experts, aligned to the future of the mainframe ecosystem and IBM Z technology. For IT leaders with core business applications running in COBOL, PL/I, and Assembler on the mainframe, SHARE offers new insights and opportunities for educational growth, skill building, and networking. This time-honored learning event also brings together a unique ecosystem of technology partners, software vendors and systems integrators, aligned to the sustained success, growth, and expansion of the mainframe. If you’re actively working in the IT industry, looking for employment or simply wish to stay connected to a diverse and dynamic technology community, SHARE is your go-to destination.

If you weren't able to make it to SHARE Orlando, we'd love to talk shop at this year's destination: Kansas City. We're thrilled to continue the mainframe modernization conversation, so swing by Booth 402 to grab some swag and see a demo of the AveriSource Platform™️. We're also speaking at two new sessions, including a demo for the mainframe community enabling them to accelerate their application modernization journey—on the mainframe and in the cloud.
