Depends on what you mean by “obsolete”.
Were they superseded by more modern solutions? Absolutely.
Were they nonfunctional? Hell no.
I worked on several systems in the early 2000s that still had a big old mainframe at the back end.
I’m pretty sure most airlines and banks still run them.
- bcrl 5y agoA previous employer had to implement EBCDIC support to interoperate with mainframes just 5 or 6 years ago. Yes, banks are still adding features and new code that runs on their mainframes. IBM still seems to be cranking out new generations of mainframes every few years, so somebody must be paying for this.
