Mainframe Sunsetting Assistance

We Help You Wind Down Your Mainframe the Right Way

Sunsetting a mainframe environment is one of the most complex and risk-laden projects an IT organization can undertake. Supportmyz provides hands-on sunsetting assistance to organizations that are decommissioning their mainframe — whether you are migrating off the platform entirely, consolidating hardware, or winding down a legacy environment. We have guided organizations through every phase of the sunsetting process and we know where the risks are before they become problems.

• Not sure where to start with your mainframe decommission? — Sunsetting a mainframe involves far more than just turning off the hardware. Data archival, application migration, hardware disposition, software license termination, and staff transition all have to be carefully coordinated. We bring a proven process to keep your project on track.
• Worried about data you can't afford to lose? — Decades of critical business data often live on mainframe tape and disk systems. We help you identify, archive, and preserve the data you need — in formats accessible long after the mainframe is gone — so nothing falls through the cracks.
• Need to manage costs while the mainframe is still running? — The period between the decision to sunset and the final decommission can be expensive. We help you reduce hardware, software, and staffing costs during the wind-down phase so you are not paying full price for a platform you are leaving.
