Enterprise Systems

We are involved in all aspects of supporting and enhancing the mainframe environment as it evolves alongside network-based computing platforms.

Synectics opened its doors to mainframe technology in 1984. During the early 90's, we knew that eventually the high-powered machines would find their place in a client/server world. That time is now! More and more, the mainframe enterprise systems are being connected to Intranet, Internet and other networked applications. Many of today's new client/server systems demand the capabilities only the mainframe can deliver.

Enterprise Systems
The mainframe will be at the center of business information technology for a long time to come. The mission-critical data repositories of inventory and data warehouse will always reside on the mainframe. The reasons are simple; no other computer platform has the throughput nor the storage capacity of the mainframe. The business applications, on the other hand, will be a mixed bag of mainframe and network computing.

Synectics understands our clients' demand for technical staffing with diverse skills. Our clients need a variety of expertise in many computer platforms and development tools. We understand our clients' need to support ongoing mainframe legacy systems while developing new enterprise-wide initiatives.

Open Systems
With introduction of OpenMVS, the IBM mainframe has become an excellent network resource. New mainframe connectivity features such as TCP/IP, DCE and a host of middleware options has brought the mainframe full circle. Just having the knowledge that a desktop application can easily access CICS tasks and DB2 Database tables expands the scope of every project. Now there is no need to rewrite legacy systems or to convert to client/server. The mainframe is just another node on the network.

Synectics' long-term commitment to the mainframe along with our experience in client/server technologies makes us the right choice for seamlessly integrating the two platforms.
