I worked with some at a bank (of course).
Nowadays a "mainframe" is just a 1U server and it's incredible how some old names in IT can still charge enormous fees for some very old software.
- throwawayboise 5y ago> Nowadays a "mainframe" is just a 1U server No it isn't. But I grant that there are probably people who incorrectly call their 1U servers "mainframes".
- dralley 5y agoNo, that is not even remotely close to being true. Pretty much every aspect of a mainframe is architecturally massively different from a big rack of standard servers.
