I suspect that whilst many of these companies are busy 'modernising' they are not looking at the organisation and process. In which case trying to implement a technology that requires agility / flexibility on a platform that traditionally provides heavy and inflexible governance will not be a good fit. I think the change for a mainframe focused company in terms of Operating model is just as important (if not a necessary pre-requisite) to implementing business rules type software??? Cheer, Alex ps the link to Mainfame agility and business rules... is that still available?
