About this white paper

For global payment processors and banks, mainframes remain critical for high-volume transactions, but rising MIPS costs, talent shortages, and integration limits create barriers to digital transformation. This white paper explains how GridGain enables these organizations to modernize their payments mainframe systems to reduce operating costs, increase performance, and improve agility.

You will learn three modernization paths: the Digital Integration Hub approach that offloads read and write workloads, distributed compute and analytics offloading, and full mainframe replacement for long-term cost savings. The paper outlines how GridGain reduces MIPS consumption by serving high volume transactions and analytical queries from a distributed, in-memory cluster instead of the mainframe.

It also covers stored procedure migration, data colocation, distributed ACID transactions, and the use of AI tools to accelerate code conversion. A recommended modernization roadmap shows how organizations can offload first, migrate logic gradually, and retire the mainframe only when risk is low. Real industry use cases illustrate how GridGain enables faster performance, lower latency, and millions in yearly savings.

mainframe modernization for high volume payment systems

For global payment processors and banks, GridGain enables a safe, phased "Offload First" strategy to immediately reduce MIPS costs and achieve the sub-millisecond performance required for high-volume payment systems.

Mainframe Modernization for High-Volume Payment Systems

Modernize critical payment systems with GridGain. Reduce MIPS costs, offload high-volume read/write workloads via a Digital Integration Hub, and achieve sub-millisecond performance through a staged, "Offload First" migration.
