DescriptionKick off your SHARE week with the z/OS and Hardware Track Opening Session, where we set the stage for the technical discussions, innovation highlights, and community collaboration that define this track. This session provides an overview of the key z/OS and hardware topics being covered at this SHARE — from system modernization, resiliency, and performance to infrastructure automation, configuration best practices, and capacity trends. You’ll hear updates from IBM, vendor partners, and SHARE volunteers on emerging technologies, upcoming sessions, and cross-track initiatives impacting the mainframe ecosystem. We’ll also recognize our volunteers, preview what’s new in the z/OS Systems Programming space, and provide guidance on how to make the most of the week — including key sessions to attend, hands-on learning opportunities, and networking events for systems programmers, hardware engineers, and performance specialists. Whether you’re new to SHARE or a long-time contributor, this opening session will orient you, inspire you, and connect you with the people and content shaping the future of the mainframe platform.
