67. Re-Imagining the Mainframe for the AI Era at SHARE
Manage episode 495896731 series 1204875
As Tech Field Day heads to SHARE in Cleveland, we are considering the many ways the mainframe has been re-imagined and re-built for the AI era. This episode of the Tech Field Day podcast features Cynthia Overby of Rocket Software and SHARE, Derek Britton, and Jeffrey Powers discussing the modern mainframe with Stephen Foskett. Walk around the SHARE conference and you’ll see the same concepts and technologies that you would find at any other conference: AI, security, data management, software development, and connectivity. Although the mainframe platform is radically different from the so-called open systems used in the cloud and elsewhere, IBM has re-engineered the new z17 mainframe for the AI age. The mainframe hosts the most valuable data in the world, and if AI is going to be used it has to run locally. That’s why IBM added a second-generation AI accelerator to the latest Telum II processor, the Spyre Accelerator, and z/OS itself. We’re excited to be bringing Tech Field Day to SHARE to learn more about the modern mainframe and share the state of the art with our audience.
Host: Stephen Foskett, Organizer and President of Tech Field Day
Panel:
Cynthia Overby, Director Strategic Security Solutions at Rocket Software
Derek Britton, Chief Marketing Officer, PopUp Mainframe
Jeffrey Powers, Founder of Geekazine.com
