About this white paper

Mainframes remain critical for banking, insurance, telco, and government, but rising MIPS costs, talent shortages, and integration limits create barriers to digital transformation. This white paper explains how organizations can modernize mainframe systems using GridGain to reduce operating costs, increase performance, and improve agility.

You will learn three modernization paths: distributed compute and analytics offloading, the Digital Integration Hub approach that offloads read and write workloads, 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.

GridGain allows organizations to cut MIPS costs, improve performance, and modernize mainframe systems through a safe and staged offload first strategy.
