Broadcom Introduces Enterprise Support for Open Mainframe Project’s Zowe Framework
11 Mars 2019 - 2:00PM
At the semi-annual SHARE conference, Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ: AVGO)
today announced the introduction of enterprise-grade support for
Zowe™, the Open Mainframe Project’s open source software framework
that enables customers to securely develop and manage mainframe
applications like any other cloud platform. As the first open
source project based on IBM’s z/OS, Zowe provides the framework and
capabilities to accelerate mainframe application development via
modern DevOps tools while introducing new levels of automation and
infrastructure management.
Mainframe systems form the backbone of many critical system of
record applications run by large, global enterprises. However,
application developers and system programmers have been challenged
in their attempts to leverage the mainframe using modern DevOps
tools and techniques. Last year’s introduction of CA Brightside,
which was contributed to Zowe and recently received DevOps.com’s
Most Innovative DevOps Solution of the Year award, gives IT
organizations the ability to utilize many of the same tools across
their cloud, mobile, and mainframe platforms, enabling faster time
to value.
“I am very excited to hear about Zowe and how Broadcom is
offering enterprise support for it. I look forward to working with
Broadcom and using it,” said Omar Campana, IT Director at
BPER.
The scope of Broadcom’s enterprise-grade support covers the four
core components of Zowe: a CLI; a web user interface (UI); an API
Mediation Layer, which acts as a single point of access for all
service-oriented REST APIs originating from the mainframe; and
microservices.
“We're delighted to be extending our commitment to Zowe by
providing the level of enterprise-grade support that our customers
have come to expect,” said Greg Lotko, Senior Vice President and
General Manager, Mainframe Division at Broadcom. “With today’s
announcement, customers looking to leverage Zowe’s open source
framework can now do so with the assurance of world-class support
from Broadcom, enabling them to embark on their digital
transformation initiatives with confidence.”
The benefits of Zowe’s open source approach also extend
throughout the entire ecosystem as the mainframe serves as a
gateway to a much broader set of enterprise developers driving
hybrid, cross-platform applications. By arming new and emerging
developers with these valuable skills, Zowe will also help sustain
the mainframe environment by attracting and retaining
next-generation talent.
“Broadcom’s support offering is yet another milestone for Zowe
and shows the increasing momentum of what was announced just seven
months ago,” said Barry Baker, Vice President, IBM Z Software at
IBM. “With this support offering from Broadcom, in addition to
the several products launched or announced by IBM, Rocket and
Broadcom, the adoption of Zowe technology can only continue to
accelerate.”
At this year’s SHARE conference, Broadcom’s Greg Lotko will be
presenting a session entitled, “Mainframe: Past, Present, and
Future Perfect” on Monday, March 11 at 12:30 p.m. MT. Also, join
Greg and other industry experts at the Keynote Panel Session
titled, “Speed Dating with Open Mainframe” taking place Tuesday,
March 12 at 8:30 a.m. MT. Be sure to stop by the Broadcom booth
(#402) in the SHARE Technology Exchange Expo to learn more about
how mainframe innovations can support your business.
