Enterprises today seek enhanced flexibility and high-quality IT infrastructure management capabilities to drive innovation and serve their customers better. Rather than abandoning their existing mainframe infrastructure, many are opting to modernize it in place, leveraging the unique strengths of both mainframes and cloud computing.

Mainframes offer unparalleled reliability, availability, and security for efficiently handling high-volume transaction workloads with minimal latency. Cloud platforms such as Microsoft Azure, on the other hand, are designed for rapid scalability, cost optimization through OPEX financial models, and access to cutting-edge technologies like AI, machine learning, and advanced analytics.

However, the primary challenge lies in accessing and utilizing mainframe data effectively within cloud environments, especially data sources that are traditionally difficult to access, such as VSAM, Datacom, and IDMS.

Introducing Rocket Data Replicate and Sync, a solution that simplifies and optimizes the process of collecting, filtering, and transferring data from mainframes and other distributed data sources to your preferred cloud destinations in near real-time.

With Rocket Data Replicate and Sync, you can continue to conduct transactions on your mainframe, and within milliseconds, have the same data seamlessly replicated to your existing cloud data stores, which can be utilized for modern mobile web and applications, advanced analytics, or the development of powerful generative AI models.
