In the fast-paced world of mainframe software development, how can enterprise achieve their full DevOps potential? In the world of mainframes, the traditional linear, sequential waterfall method of software development is being replaced by Agile development, emphasizing quick iterations and constant feedback. The same goes for DevOps, as a shift in focus towards collaboration and automation, along with the ability to deliver code quickly. Providing a modern and flexible developer experience is essential, and delivering mainframe developers the best tools, processes and frameworks to perform their jobs is more critical than ever.
We believe that companies who fail to improve the developer experience within their mainframe development team will ultimately fail to keep up with competitors that focus on obtaining better tools for their developers. By neglecting to improve the developer experience, businesses are left with unhappy developers, and put their enterprise at-risk of losing talented staff.Â
The future of mainframe application development rests on the growth of tools that improve developer experience— the right tools can increase job satisfaction, helping businesses retain their hard-to-replace team members and provide modern and automated tools that lead to streamlined performance and increased potential for growth.
