Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2015, Vol 17, Issue 1

Abstract

 Abstract: This article presents a summary of the Mainframes which are breathing new life in business withinthe wake of a new computing commonly termed as Cloud Computing in which colossal clusters of remoteservers are arranged & structured in a circuitry in such a way so as to permit centralized data storage andonline approach to computer services or resources. It discusses varied potential advantages of Mainframes overthe Cloud significantly in terms of processing power, storage and security. It argues that given somewhat slowergrowth projection, the Cloud will reach a declining phase, posing security issues and inflexible environment butthe Mainframes will still stand the test of time since the asserted advantages are far more copious that itsdrawbacks could be overlooked. It also bounces off the wherewithal benefactors of using mainframesprominently in terms of its pursuance on the businesses and adduces out notions & validations that make it aprime platform for fleckless & unerring computing.
