New Mainframe Market Survey Reveals Fresh Focus on Silos, Strategy, and Specialization
eTradeWire News/10801560
STRAND, U.K. - eTradeWire -- PopUp Mainframe Ltd, an enterprise software company dedicated to revolutionizing mainframe system delivery, today announced the findings of its Mainframe Survey, which reveals the latest market trends and 2025 plans for enterprises utilizing IBM mainframe technology.
The survey reveals the continued reliance, investment and perceived value of the mainframe environment across the sector, with ninety-eight percent of respondents saying that rely on the IBM mainframe to run their organization. A further 94% confirm their "potential to leverage additional workload capacity on specialist / Linux environments on Z," with 97% seeking to make "increased use" of specialist mainframe processors.
The survey also uncovers major strategic challenges facing leaders today, with around eighty percent in each case citing speed of delivery, cost management, flexibility, risk management and meeting sustainability targets as important issues, and for which improvements were needed. Operationally, ready access to mainframe environments was given by nearly two thirds of respondents as a hindrance to meeting mainframe delivery needs, while both technical skills and adequate tooling challenges were cited by most respondents.

"As we see the attitudes around mainframe modernization continue to evolve, the platform's ability to help deliver change rapidly, without risk, and with the right levels of flexibility, remains critical," said CEO Gary Thornhill. "What our survey shows is a reminder that, in an ever-evolving digital world, overcoming important strategic and operational challenges continues to be an imperative for many organizations, and that there remain a variety of difficulties to overcome. The responses suggest to us that how the mainframe is used must evolve to meet these challenges. Essential is the requirement for organizations to innovate through both tooling and process, with emphasis on cultural change," he added.
Conducted with Vanson Bourne, a global research and analysis company, the survey asked leading practitioners and IT executives from the UK and North America about the strategic importance of the IBM mainframe to their business, current challenges and future needs, as well as their development toolchains and resources.

Other findings of the survey included material concerns over the availability of mainframe environments (88%), with staffing limitations, and tooling (both 79%) noted as hindrances to meeting business objectives, while 96% reported they experienced development and testing challenges using the IBM mainframe
"The launch of the z17 underscores the mainframe's enduring strength, cementing its position in the market," said Steven Dickens, CEO & Principal Analyst at HyperFRAME Research. "With evolving application needs, organisations are turning to DevOps advancements to enhance performance and maintain a competitive edge, and PopUp Mainframe stands out as a solution worth evaluating in this context."
