DescriptionWith the growing use of open source software on the mainframe, there are many questions to answer. How will companies adopt and trust the technology ? How will vendors participate in a way that brings revenue yet doesn’t detract from the “free at the point of source” ? Will open source make the platform less unique and is this is a good or bad thing for z/OS ? What role do early career professional bring alongside experienced tenure mainframes ? What role does academia and learning initiatives play ? What is the intersection and opportunity with open source and AI on the platform ? This panel will place customer sysprogs and DbAs, students, and software vendors alongside to present their arguments and ideas and take Q&A from the audience to help share ideas, problems and solutions.
